S'lR, 
IHad acquainted you with the fucsefsof my Joutney before tWs tune 
if the expedtation of an Anfwer to that Lettei? I made bold to write 
to youfbrne weeks fitice about a Rm^n ihtion in this County, had not 
■ put a Hop to my Refolutior.s. * 
_ Thofe Infcriptions,! doubt not, will find a favourable reception ; tho 
^tisto b& confe(s'd,fome of them are not fo perfect as I could havedefired s 
and moll of the words in that mark'd Tab. u No i, are lb arrificiaily 
crazed, that I am apt to bclie\^e it has been tims deficed upon lome R.e- 
volution in the Roman Government. This, f with feveral more beauti- 
fy 'd with Infcriptions and Engraving, but which are now taken a way 
'was dug up lome time ago in a. Field called the Bmer, it is about half 
way between tlie Roman W all and South Tine, and is near two miles 
WdlkomB^ifte.gap; here Iv's been a Garrifbn kept, it has been 
furrounded with a fmgle Wall, and is fquare , 'tis nothing now but 
heaps of Stones, overgrown with Buflies.- 
Some years ago, on the Weft fide of this Place, .about fifty yards from 
the Walls thereof, there wasdifcover'd under a heap ofRubbiilia fquare 
Room ftrongly vaulted above, and paved with large (quare Stones let iii 
Lime j and under this a lower Room, whofe Roof was fupported by 
rows of fquare Pillars of about half a yard high: .the upper Room had 
two nichesy like (and perhaps in the nature ofj Chimneys on each fide of 
every corner or fquare, which in all made the number fixteen ; the Pave- 
nient of this Room, as alfo its Roof, were tinged black with Smoak, 
The Stones ufed in Vaulting the upper Room have been marked as Q~iir 
Joyjiers do the Deals for Chambers ; thofe I fa w 'were numbered thii 
X. XI. Xin. The man who farms this ground prefented me with a 
winged Image, it has been about three Inches long, but now wants tlu- . 
Head and Feet. 
The other Infcriptions were al! found tiear t}\e IIoMfi/Ieadsy-^ Pl.ic-' fr
