Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'[Pap castle, Cumberland] The owner had no coins when I saw him, nor knew of any that had been dug up there for some time. I was shewn a large brass piece by one of his neighbours, but it was so corroded that not the least impression could be discerned. They both promised me faithfully to procure and preserve for me whatever coins should be found there'

(Nichols 1781-1790, pp. 445-6; Burnett 2020b, p. 1307 n. 1357)
