Well, the M41 had some sort of accolade as Britain's shortest
motorway.


It never was...

at 0.7 miles long, it was a positive giant compared to, for example, the
0.5 mile long former A46(M) and A36(M), and was clearly longer than the
still extant A308(M).

The shortest motorway in the country seems to be the A635(M) in
Manchester. A motorway for a whole 300m.


But they were all motorway-class A roads, not true motorways!
