Abstract:
NZ 189301. After cleaning of the church interior an inscription was discovered some 12ft up in the wall. Re-used and set sideways, the stone reads BONO REIPVBLICAE NATO and was either a milestone from the vicinity of the fort at Binchester, 1½ miles away, or a statue-pedestal. This type of inscription-formula is not reliably attested lated than AD 395. Similar inscriptions come from Wroxeter and from Old Penrith, and the question for further research is whether these could be milestones. Although they do not mention the emperor's name, they may represent a variant type; there are several Italian milestones which bear the same formula, and there may be other parallels elsewhere.
