Why is Long St Witherley Rd labelled B4116.
It can't possibly be, the B4116 was moved out of Atherstone to Holly lane Merevale lane years ago.
Yet A5 Northbound Traffic is still directed up into the town to get onto the B4166.
Directions to Dickens night...
Directions from M42 Junction 10 roundabout
At the M42 junction 10 roundabout take the exit onto A5 (signposted Nuneaton, Dordon, Atherstone)
Travel 1.5 miles continuing forward on the A5. Entering Dordon
Travel 0.25 of a mile at the roundabout take the 2nd exit onto the A5 (signposted Nuneaton)
Travel for 1 mile and then at the roundabout take the 2nd exit onto the A5 (signposted Nuneaton) entering Grendon
Travel for 1.56 miles and then at the Holly Lane roundabout take the 2nd exit onto the A5 (signposted Nuneaton)
Travel 0.5 of a mile and then branch left (signposted Atherstone), then merge onto the B4116.
You are now entering Atherstone on Station Street.
I'd be tempted to go up by holly lane TNT if I followed that. I'd see B4116 on the sign going left and right and think I'd got to turn left up Holly Lane.
Surely it should be re labelled B4111
