A HISTORY OF NORTHAMPTONSHIRE PoTTERSPURY. — At Moorend Castle, rectangular building with corner towers, stone founda- tions, 'many Roman tiles' [journal of the British Archaeological Association, vii. iii]. But see Baker, ii. 229. I do not think the evidence adequate to call these Roman. Pytchley. — Various coins [Archaological yournal, iii. 113]. Radstone. — Coins in urn ; the urn is in Northampton Museum. There is a Cold Harbour Farm here, but no trace of any Roman building. Raunds. — At Mallows Cotton, villa : see p. 1 94. The alleged Ostorian fort here seems imagi- nary. The earthwork at Mill Cotton [Morton, p. 516] is not Roman. These remains are sometimes classed under Ringstead. RiNGSTEAD. — See Raunds. RoADE. — Pottery and coins [Mr. Whitbread]. Rockingham. — Iron slag, vaguely noted [^Archaologia, xliii. 118; Archaological 'Journal, XXXV. 269]. Sewardsley (Shoseley). — Jug of red ware found 1889 in making Towcester and Olney railway [Sir Hy. Dryden]. Doubtful if Roman. SouTHORPE. — Pits on each side of Ermine Street (Forty-foot way), dug (according to some) to provide stone for the road. In the pits west of the road coins of circa 150-350 a.d., urns, fibula, glass, burnt bones, wood were found in 1733 and 1753 [Arch^ologia, i. 61 (hence Gough, Add. to Camden, ii. 292, and later writers) ; Gough, British Topography, ii. 47 ; drawings in Library of Society of Antiquaries ; Stukeley, Itinerarium, p. 83]. At Walcot Park, coins [Morton, p. 532]. Stukeley [Itinerarium, p. 83] incident- ally alludes to a villa here, but I find no other trace of it, and the mention may be an error. Spratton. — Coin of Marcus [Mr. George]. Fig. 36. Late Celtic Urn of Lu.hi Ur./.vn Colour from Twywell (full size). Stanion. — Many coins [Morton, p. 532 ; Stukeley's Diaries, iii. 67]. Stanion slone was used in the Weldon villa. Stanwick. — Villa: see p. 194. Stoke Bruerne. — Light-coloured urn [Mr. Coy]. Doubtful if Roman. Stratford (Old). — A few coins found in tlic fields near the bridge by which Watling Street crosses the Ouse to Stony Stratford. Hence Morton, p. 504, and Bridges, i. 304, put Lactodurum here ; Baker, ii. 138, rightly rejects the idea. Sutton. — Suburb of Castor : see p. 174. Tansor. — Urns, coins [Stukeley's Carausius, i. 170]. Thenford. — Villa : see p. 201. Thornhaugh. — Villa in Bedford Purlieus: see p. 189. Statues elsewhere in the same : see p. 190. Gold coin at Sakerwell (Sacrewell), half a mile east of village [Morton, p. 532 ; hence Gibson's Castor, ed. 2, p. 63]. 220
