==History==
Guilsborough is made up of two hamlets, now joined. Guilsborough (Guildesburgh) and Nortoft. The former referring to the Roman fort and the latter to Scandinavian settlers. The Church Mount road housing stands where Guilsborough Hall once stood. The mount is separated from the main road by a large embankment which is the remains of a Roman wall. The wall was part of a Roman fort, an outpost of the settlement at West Haddon. The encampment is believed to have been the work of Publius Ostorius Scapula, under the reign of Claudius. The larger part of the camp walls have long since been removed and it is noted that, when the south bank was removed in the 19th century, many skeletons were found (E. & E. Renton - see 'Writings Section'). No one is certain what became of these remains.
. In the two fields below Nortoft ('Northern Clearing')at the spring line below the Ironstone, lies the remains of a medieval village, with house platforms and the remnants of a track still visible. Local knowledge suggest that the village burnt down, but as yet there is not collaborative evidence. Nortoft Cottage, which has a very old cob cottage at its heart is thought to be the only remaining building of the original Nortoft.
