Too bad they did not include the known exixting Roman routes on the map along with the newer finds.

I’m not sure that the other routes shown are not old Roman routes; Kirkby Thore lay at a Roman crossroad, with the Maiden Way going east to west. Roman Britain really had a lot of stuff to get lost, including whole towns, it’s not surprising that it hasn’t all been figured out.
