Attacked by paralysis in 1882, he died 4 January 1885, and was buried at Kensal Green.[1] WorksCoote is now remembered for his Romans of Britain (1878).

Edward Augustus Freeman subjected his views to attack in Macmillan's Magazine in 1870. In 1878 Coote published The Romans of Britain, expanding his position, and he had some support from Frederic Seebohm in his English Village Community (1883).[1] The underlying issue of institutional continuity was taken up again in the middle of the 20th century.[2] Coote's other writings were:[1]
