<P> Historians are dependent on Roman sources for accounts of the battle . The precise location is not known , but most historians place it between Londinium and Viroconium ( Wroxeter in Shropshire ) , on the Roman Road now known as Watling Street . This name for the road originated in Anglo - Saxon times , thus the modern name of the battle is anachronistic as well as being somewhat speculative . </P>
