Stane Street to Colchester is in Roman Roads.

Stane Street to Colchester is a Roman Road between Braughing, Hertfordshire [Map] and Colchester, Essex [Map]. It travelled through Little Hadham, Hertfordshire [Map], Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire [Map], Takeley, Essex [Map], Great Dunmow, Essex [Map], Braintree, Essex [Map], Coggeshall, Essex [Map] and Marks Tey, Essex [Map].

Braughing, Hertfordshire [Map] was a small Roman Town at the junction of Ermine Street and Stane Street to Colchester. There was a planned street grid where thatched timber buildings, which lasted until about AD 60, were constructed. Not long afterwards substantial masonry structures were also constructed, including an L-shaped building with bath suite which was still in use in the 4th century. Coins of Tasciovanus (c. 20BC - AD10) are known from the site [2] identifying an associated with the Catuvellauni. The final Roman coin evidence from the site is associated with Arcadius (AD383 - 408).
