  A361 road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This section is a modern, wide single-carriageway trunk road (which was de-trunked in 2002), apart from the 5-mile stretch between Tiverton and the M5, which is dual-carriageway.
The rest of the road, from Taunton to Rugby, is largely county-road class; the quality of the road surface, width and verges can sometimes be barely better than a B-road.
The road has been re-numbered A4361 from its junction with the A4 immediately south of Avebury northwards, becoming the A361 again at the junction with the A419 which passes north-east of Swindon.
