The A49 (former B5064) near Lee Brockhurst
There are two parallel roads between Whitchurch and Shrewsbury. The original number of the road avoiding Wem was the B5064, whilst the A49 took the road via Wem the A49.
The A49 was diverted along the entire length of the B5064 after World War II, to bypass Wem. The number B5064 therefore became defunct.
