Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 July 2012
Extract
That judicious Antiquary Mr. Horsley says, there is no one Roman station in Britain, where, he believes, so great a number of inscriptions have been discovered, as at Ellenborough, in Cumberland, and most of the original inscribed stones were yet preserved at Ellenborough hall (now called Nether-hall,) the seat of Humphry Senhouse, esq; proprietor of the ground where the station was and lineal descendant from John Senhouse, esq; praised by Mr. Camden, for his great civility to Sir Robert Cotton and himself when they visited these parts; also for his excellent skill in antiquities, and for the care he took in preserving such valuable literary curiosities.
