Rambles Round Edge Hills. By the Rev. George Miller. (W.

Potts, Banbury.)—The site of the famous battle is commonly spoken of as Edge Hill. This name, which indeed should be in the plural, does not denote a single eminence, but a table-land reaching from the upper valley of the Cherwell to the vale of the Red Horse, so called from the figure cut in the sandstone near Tysoe. Mr. Miller gives some interesting particulars about the past and present of this region, and adds a special account of the battle, illustrated by a plan.
