Lichfield is a cathedral city in Staffordshire. It is situated close to the centre of the UK road network, some 22 km north-northeast of Birmingham. The Roman roads known as Watling Street and Icknield Street – roughly corresponding to the modern A5 and A38 – crossed at Letocetum (Wall) just over 3 km southwest of the city. Today Lichfield is also close to the M6 Toll motorway, accessed by junctions at Weeford (T4) and Wall Island (T5).
