Excerpt from A Collection of Records and Documents Relating to the Hundred and Manor of Crondal in the County of Southampton, Vol. 1: Historical and Manorial
Some early entrenchments exist on the range of chalk hills on the south side of Crondal and Aldershot; and thercisalso an andent encampmc called Casar's camp, upon an elevated plain, which recalls the time when the country was occupied by the Romans. That they were quietly and peacefully settled in the neighbourhood was proved by the discovery, in 1817, of the remains of a large villa and a beautifully executed tessellated pavement in a field hard by Badley pound-farm. In the year 1828, about a mile or a little more below the range of hills, at a files on the heath not far off the line of the ancient road from Winchester to London, was discovered a collection of Merovingian and other gold coins, over a hundred in number, with the remains ofvthe pum in which they had been enclosed. These coins were either lost or deposited there by the owner, probably a moneyer. When causing the heath in the seventh or eighth century.
