[A] ALFRETON, is situated about two miles from the commencement of the
moors, which extend so widely in this county. The town is supposed to
have been built by King Alfred, and to derive its name from him. The
spot is shown where the house stood in which he lived. The inhabitants
are principally employed in a stocking manufactory, and in the
neighbouring collieries. Earthenware is also made in this place, and the
Monday market, for corn, is considerable. In Greenhill Lane, near this
town, seven hundred Roman coins, were discovered by a labourer employed
in repairing a fence.
_Markets_, Monday and Friday.--_Mail_ arrives 2-1/4 P.M., departs
9-1/4 A.M.--_Fairs_, horses and cattle, October 8, and November 22,
statute.--_Inns_, Angel, and George.
[Sidenote: Built by King Alfred.]
[Sidenote: 700 Roman coins found here.]
