Cunetio

Its location was identified from aerial photos of crop marks taken in 1940, and the site has been sporadically excavated since the 1950s. In the 1960s, a small coin hoard was found, followed in 1978 by the much larger Cunetio Hoard of over 55,000 coins.
Ogbourne St Andrew
Ogbourne St Andrew is a small village in Wiltshire. It is near the village of Ogbourne St George and the hamlets of Ogbourne Maizey and Rockley. The village is lacking in local facilities because it changed from a farming-based community into a commuter-based one and therefore lost its local shop and post office due to lack of demand although the post box is still operating.
Marlborough Castle
Marlborough Castle, locally known and recorded in historical documents as The Mount, was an 11th-century royal castle located in the civil parish of Marlborough, a market town in the English county of Wiltshire, on the Old Bath Road, the old main road from London to Bath. The barrow on which the fortification was built, perhaps the "barrow of Maerla" seems to be a prehistoric earthwork which formed the motte of the Norman Marlborough Castle.
Marlborough railway stations
|} Marlborough, Wiltshire in England was served by two separate railway stations whose histories were intertwined. The two stations were built by different railway companies which started as competitors but ended up under the same ownership. This led to some complex rationalisation in the operation of the railway lines that served the town.
Ogbourne Maizey
Ogbourne Maizey is a hamlet in Wiltshire. It is at the Marlborough end of the village of Ogbourne St. Andrew. The hamlet on the banks of the River Og is dominated by commuter housing and race horse stables on the narrow road that leads over the downs to Rockley. Local primary-level children usually go to the school in Ogbourne St. George or to Marlborough. A map of 1773 shows an almost continuous ribbon of buildings along it between Ogbourne Maizey and Ogbourne St. Andrew.
