NEWDIGATE, (Surrey) 5 m. S.E. of Parking, where the elder branch of the Newdigates of Harefield in Middlesex were settled about the R. of Hen. I. and had an estate of about 500 l. a year. In the E. part of this p. there is a medicinal spring of the same nature as that of Epsom. The Wyld hereabouts is observed to bear excellent oats, but its soil does not agree well with barley. The inh. of these parts do not yoke their pigs, to hinder them from breaking through hedges, but run skewers of 2 or 3 inches long through their noses. Here is a hamlet of the same name, on the N. E. side of this p.
