A bowl barrow believed to have been excavated in 1770 or 1771 during the landscaping of Vespasians Camp.

O.G.S. Crawford found drawings of a small bronze dagger which was said to have been found during this time.

The barrow was originally said to be 32 paces in diameter and 4ft high, before it was bisected by a driveway as part of the landscaping.
