A Description of the Deverel Barrow, Opened A.D. 1825: by William Augustus Miles.

The beginning of this pamphet consists of a fantastic amount of waffle. But then it gets better when he actually gets started on describing the excavation - and at the end are some nice drawings of the urns.

It's followed by a description of the "coal money" found at Kimmeridge - round carved pieces of the Kimmeridge shale, from the coast south of here.
