A HISTORY OF NORTHAMPTONSHIRE Apethorpe. — Villa: seep. 191. Arthingworth. — Silver coin of Julia Domna [George]. AsHBY St. Legers. — Silver coin of Faustina [Morton, p. 532 : hence Bridges, i. 19]. Ashley. — Villa : see p. 193. AsHTON. — Building : see p. 189. Legionary tile : see p. 214. AsTON-LE- Walls. — Pale buff urn, covered over with a stone (no bones or ashes), found in 1843 near the church [Journal of the Britiih Archaological Association, i. 337]. Whether Roman, seems uncertain. There are no Roman 'walls' here and it seems doubtful whether 'le-walls' is the true form of the name. AsTROP. — See King's Sutton. AsTWiCK. — See Evenley. Barnack. — Torso of nude male figure in local stone, found at the vicarage [Associated Archit. Soc. Reports, ix. 158 : Peterborough Museum]. Barnwell St. Andrews. — Coins of Aelius Verus, Allectus, Helena, etc. [Morton, p. 516]. Bedford Purlieus. — Villa: see p. 189. In Thornhaugh parish. Blisworth. — Rude potsherds, etc., from wells or pits [Northampton Museum]. BoDiNGTON. — Urn found 1873 in ' Whiteleys ' field, containing about 360 'third brass' (150 catalogued, of a.d. 253-74) [Northamptonshire Notes and Queries, iii. 151]. Borough Hill. — See Daventry. BowDEN, Little. — Urns, coins, bits of bronze found 1757 ; glass, etc., found 1873 [Gentle- mans Magazine (1757), p. 20 ; Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries, vi. 256]. Brixworth. — Building: seep. 194. Brockhall. — Coins [Baker, i. 119 ; vague]. Anciently Broclchole. Bulwick. — Blacklands : slag of iron works, pottery, coins of lulia Augusta, Carausius, Con- stantine, etc. [Associated Archit. Soc. Reports, v. 99, 107 ; Whelian, p. 786]. Hoard of over 100 denarii in urn, found 1878 : three were Vitellius, Vespasian, Trajan [Numismatic Chronicle, xix. 219]. Compare Archaologia, liv. 474—94. Burnt Walls. — See Daventry. Cardike. — This supposed Roman drain runs through Northants near Peterborough [Morton, p. 514-5] ; but this part of its course supplies no evidence of its age. Castle Ashby. — Coins found 1 7 1 9 in avenue leading to Lord Northampton's house [Bridges, i. 341 ; hence Gough, Add. to Camden, ii. 280, etc.]. Castle Dykes. — Earthwork at the four crossroads (south of the probably post-Roman earth- work properly called Castle Dykes). The one or the other was called by Gale Bannaventa and by Stukeley one of the Ostorian forts [Itinerarium, p. 114]. No Roman remains seem to have been found here [Morton, p. 516] : the 'Roman urn' cited in Gentleman's Magazine (1793), ii. 1 179, may be anything. No pottery is now visible lying on the surface, nor are there any visible indications of Roman origin. See Bridges, i. 61 ; Baker, i. 375. In Farthingstone parish. Castor. — Town : see p. 166. Potteries : see p. 207. Catesby Park. — Coins of Faustina, Maximian, etc. [Bridges, i. 36 ; hence Baker, i. 292, etc.]. Charlton [near King's Sutton]. — Gold coin of Titus found about 1720 ; other coins [Bridges, i. 191 ; Baker, i. 666]. Beesley in his Banbury (p. 37) mentions a supposed hoard of gold coins but it is probably a reminiscence of the coin of Titus. Gough [Add. to Camden, ii. 272] mentions urns, glass, etc., found in the non-Roman camp of Rainsborough, but it is not at all clear that they are Roman. Iron arrowheads have been found there [Journal of the British Archaological Association, xvii. 70]. Chipping Warden. — Villa : see p. 200. Clifford's Hill. — See Houghton. CoGENHOE. — Urns, coins (i Faustina) [Morton, p. 529 ; Bridges, i. 347 ; Archaologia, xxxW. 1 3]. The alleged ' camp ' seems not to be Roman, if ' camp ' at all. Colly Weston. — The slates here were quarried by the Romans. The ' camp ' noted by Stukeley [Letters, iii. 54] seems not Roman, if 'camp' at all. CosGROvE. — Coins found on line of Grand Junction Canal ; silver medallions of Con- stantine I., Valentinian II., Magnus Maximus ; silver of Julian, Valens, Gratian ; ' third brass' of Tacitus, Diocletian, Constans, Magnentius, etc. [Baker, ii. 136]. Perhaps a hoard. Urn with 60 denarii found in front of a private house [Gentleman's Magazine ( 1 80 1 ), i, 76]. Cotterstock. — Villa : see p. 192. 216
