BROXTOW, a chapelry in the parish of BILBOROUGH, southern division of the wapentake of BROXTOW, county of NOTTINGHAM, 3 miles (N. W. by W.) from Nottingham. The population is returned with the parish. This place, which gave name to the hundred, in ancient records is called a parish, but appears to have been subsequently annexed to Bilborough, to which the chapel, now in ruins, was a chapel of ease.
