Indeed, other intermittent traces of a possible route for "Ringway C", which would have complemented the North Circular Road, can be discerned looping through the outer suburbs in several places between here and Wandsworth, notably Trinity Road in Wandsworth itself. www.sabre-roads.org.uk /roadlists/r10/notes.php?number=A205   (1280 words)
