Turton, S. D. + Weddell, P. J., 1991, An Archaeological Assessment of the Proposed Dainton Park Golf Course, Ipplepen, 5 (Report - Assessment). SDV349147.
The A381 intersects with minor road at Causeway Cross. This name is indicative of a substantial raised road. A small nearby tenement which is called Causeway on the 1906 6 inch Ordnance Survey map was named Street Tenement in the 1839 Tithe Apportionment. This name often indicates the presence of Roman road. The A381 may, therefore, represent an extension of the Roman Exeter to Teignbridge road.
