What about the Ermine Street Guard (a group of roman reinactors) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.244.7.247 (talk) 22:58, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First paragraph

"Ermine Street" shares the same Old English origin as "Ermine Street"? Rojomoke (talk) 13:46, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What was its name in Latin? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.149.42 (talk) 07:39, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As it says in the article, we don't know. Dougweller (talk) 10:32, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Etymologically, the best guess is the Via Eboracum, but it's only a guess.

Quality improvement needed, please

[edit]

Following the Time Team broadcast locating the road at Cheshunt well to the west of the road cited, and checking the wider map, it's clear that it does not pass through Ponders End at all, but through Southbury: the junction of the A10 and the Southbury Road in Enfield may actually be somewhere near it. This is simply one sample which showed this article is not of high quality. Can you therefore kindly stop using the modern road system as a reference, and connect the known sections, please? One viable wiki of far greater precision is [1], and I would suggest you approach the owners for the right to use their data, which is in any case in the public domain as the road was built many centuries ago! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.254.68.69 (talk) 15:00, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
