The 1922 Road Lists show the A434 as running from Malmesbury - Tetbury - Stonehouse - Hardwicke, now B4014, B4008. The route would have multiplexed with the A46 between Nailsworth and Stroud.

In 1935, the A419 was extended from Cirencester via Stroud to Hardwicke, taking over most of the northern section of the A434. The short section from Lightpill to Cainscross became a spur of the A46 which it remains.
