Translating that into OS references - it starts at the eastern end at SS 116999. The street map finishes at SN 110995, the road continuing westwards and becoming The Ridgeway according to the OS 25,000:1 map. I think Holloway becomes the Ridgeway at about this point because it changes from being a hollow way (get it? - a way cut into the side of a hill) to a ridge way about here.
