In the original 1922 numbering scheme, the route of A464 started at Oaken, northwest of Wolverhampton as it does today. However, it then followed the opposite fork to today's route, following what is now A41 to Hinstock and then A529 to Nantwich.
Oddly, in the 1935 Road numbering revision, both the fork at Oaken and that at Hinstock had their numbers reversed.
