Correspondence in the Bodleian Library from John Lloyd of Wollaton to Edward Lhwyd discusses coins from a find of 600 or 700 coins ploughed up in an urn in "my own little Parish" (ie Wollaton). The details seem to relate to a hoard third century radiates, the latest mentioned being Probus.

Robertson 2000, 422 no. 1788: ""Richard Cooper likewise told me of a pot of roman money found at Wilford near Nottingham." W. Stukeley, Itin. Cur, 1724, 101 C. Deering, Nottinghamia Vetus et Nova (1751), Introd. 6, App. 286, cast doubts on the accuracy of Stukeley's statement. Gough's Camden (1789), II, 287, recorded the fact that "on the opposite side of the river at Wilford was dug up in the fields a pot full of copper coins." VCH Notts., II (1910), 35, suggested that Stukeley and Gough's Camden referred to one and the same find. Undated"
