The route runs across a rural landscape close to areas of high archaeological potential, notably the scheduled Roman villa and triple-ditched fort at Ixworth, the Roman barrow cemetery (part of which is scheduled) at Rougham and the adjacent Roman road which the route follows at the southern end of the scheme.
