WILLOUGHEY ON THE WOULD, (Nottinghamshire) on the S. b. of the Co. near the Fosse-way, where in a field are the ruins, as
the inh. think, of a T, called Long-Billington, which has for many ages been demolished. Hereabouts the ploughmen and
shepherds often turn up Roman coins, so that it is supposed to have been a Roman station. It had the present name from the
willows growing about it. The manor bel. formerly to the Willoughbys, who sold it to the Hutchinsons.
