Part of a lecture on the "History of Downton" (delivered Nov. 22ind, 

 1866), by Mr. G. Matcham, is reprinted from the Salisbury Journal, 

 in which it is noted that the custom of " Borough English " is still attached 

 to certain copyhold lands within the manor. 



Following this is a historical sketch of " The Moot" and its traditions 

 by the Eev. A. Du Boulay Hill. He thinks that the " Moot Hill " is 

 " probably a unique instance of a Saxon open air court constructed 

 within an older British earthwork." The Rev. J. Kestell Floyer's 

 " Passages in the History of Downton," Wilts Arch. Mag., June, 1897, 

 is then laid under contribution ; and the book finishes with a note by 

 the Rev. A. Du Boulay Hill, in which he connects " Nettlebury," a site 

 close to the earthworks, in which there was formerly a tumulus, with 

 the burying place of Natan Leod, whom he supposes to have been 

 defeated by Cerdic at Downton in 507 A.D. " 'Nettlebury ' I take to 

 bo the garden of Bridge House, behind the waterside cottages at 

 Downton." Mr. Thomas Sheffield, a surgeon of Downton, was buried 

 in this garden March 18th, 1798, his body being subsequently removed 

 to the churchyard.
