It is sometimes taken to be the entire major route between Roman Londinium (present-day London) and Durnovaria (present-day Dorchester),〔 although it more precisely refers to the section of that route between Calleva of the Atrebates (present-day Silchester) to Sorviodunum (the abandoned site of Old Sarum).〔 (The portion between Calleva and Londinium going by the name "Devil's Highway".) ==Route== Port Way covers a distance of from Calleva to Soviodunum.〔(Roman Roads from London to Silchester and the West ), Thomas Codrington (1903) ''Roman Roads in Britain''〕〔Johnston, David E. ''Discovering Roman Britain'', Osprey, 2002.〕 Halfway along Port Way, it crossed the Roman road of Ermin Street running from Venta of the Belgae (Winchester) to Cunetio (Mildenhall) and Corinium of the Dobunni (Cirencester) at East Anton just outside Andover.〔 The crossroads at East Anton provided the nucleus for a small town which formed after the two roads were built.〔
