Towcester



Towcester ( ), the Roman town of Lactodorum, is an affluent market town in south Northamptonshire, England.
==Etymology==
Towcester comes from the Old English ''Tófe-ceaster''.〔Joseph Bosworth and T. Northcote Toller, "(Tófe-ceaster )." ''An Anglo-Saxon Dictionary''. Oxford: Oxford UP, 1882. 997. ((Online version ))〕 ''Tófe'' refers to the River Tove;〔Flavell Edmunds. "(Towcester )." ''Traces of History in the Names of Places.'' London: Longmans, Green, and Co., 1869. 272.〕 Bosworth and Toller compare it to the "Scandinavian proper names" ''Tófi'' and ''Tófa''.〔 The Old English ''ceaster'' comes from the Latin ''castra'' ("camp") and was "often applied to places in Britain which had been Roman encampments."〔"Chester." Oxford English Dictionary. (oed.com )〕 Thus, Towcester means "Camp on the (river) Tove."
