  • Pages from the account book of a medical practitioner in the Towcester-Litchborough area of Northamptonshire.

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).
