Monument record TQ 75 SW 30 - Possible Roman-British Cemetery, near Barming
Summary
Seven urns found in 1796/7 indicating the presence of a small cremation cemetery possibly connected with the nearby Roman villa site as an early Roman coin was found close by. It is also possible that they may represent a late Iron Age cemetery, but due to the lack of evidence this is far from clear.
