A41 road
The
A41 was a major trunk
road in
England,
United Kingdom that linked
London to
Birkenhead. It passes through various towns and villages including
Watford,
Kings Langley,
Hemel Hempstead,
Berkhamsted,
Tring,
Aston Clinton,
Aylesbury,
Waddesdon,
Bicester,
Stratford,
Warwick,
Solihull and Birmingham. It follows part of the line of the old
Roman road,
Akeman Street. Subsequently it runs through
Wolverhampton,
Newport, Wem,
Whitchurch and
Chester.
With the opening of the M40 right through to its link up with the M42 at Birmingham in the early 1990s, much of the route has been downgraded, and renumbered accordingly. The only section that is still numbered as the A41 is the part from London to Bicester.
