WALL, (Staffordshire) on the S. side of Lichfield, has the remains of walls, encompassing 2 acres of ground, called
Castle-crofts, wherein have been found 2 ancient pavements of Roman bricks. The inh. have had a tradition time cut of
mind, that by this field there was a city, but demolished before William the Conqueror, which is judged the more probable,
from the several Roman coins found here, and from the plain appearance of the Roman military way, called Watling-street,
from hence to Penkridge.
