Anomalously Numbered Roads In Great Britain
In the Great Britain road numbering scheme, Great Britain is divided into numbered zones, the boundaries of which are usually defined by single-digit roads. The first digit of a road's number should be the number of the zone it occupies. If the road occupies multiple zones, then the furthest-anticlockwise zone is the correct one.
The following table lists all British roads which are anomalously numbered. Roads in bold lie completely outside of the "correct" zone; all other roads run for some length in the "correct" zones but trespass into zones anticlockwise of this zone.
