ROTHWELL, (Northamptonshire) or ROWEL, 2 m. from Kettering, 58 cm. 69 mm. from London, stands on the side of a rocky hill,
and is plentifully supplied with springs of pure water. It has a noted Horse-Fair, which was held on Trinity-Sunday for a
long time, but now the day after. It has a Mt. on M. but almost lost by its nearneas to Kettering. Here is a fine Mt.-
house, a square building of aahler-stone, adorned with the arms of most of the gentry of the Co. carved under the cornish
on the outside, the contrivance of Sir Lewis Tresham. This manor was formerly the Es. of Stafford; and here was once a
nunnery.
