  • Pages from the account book of a medical practitioner in the Towcester-Litchborough area of Northamptonshire. Accounts of childbirth relate to deliveries made by the owner and his business associates Messrs. Grant and Deacon of Towcester. These contain details of dates of birth, mothers, sex of infant, and fees levied. Other accounts of income and expenditure are both professional and domestic, with occasional notices of inoculations. The initials 'T.W.' are present throughout the volume, and internal evidence suggests that the accounts are of a member of the Watkins family, several generations of which practised medicine in Towcester. The owner was possibly Timothy Watkins, grandfather of John Webb Watkins (1833-1903).

  • Polygonum bistorta L. Polygonaceae Bistort, snakeweed, Easter Ledges. Distribution: Europe, N & W Asia. Culpeper: “... taken inwardly resist pestilence and poison, helps ruptures, and bruises, stays fluxes, vomiting and immoderate flowing of the terms in women, helps inflammations and soreness of the mouth, and fastens loose teeth, being bruised and boiled in white wine and the mouth washed with it.” In modern herbal medicine it is still used for a similar wide variety of internal conditions, but it can also be cooked and eaten as a vegetable. The use to relieve toothache, applied as a paste to the affected tooth, seems to have been widespread. Photographed in the Medicinal Garden of the Royal College of Physicians, London.
