A Gold Ornament found at Castle Cary, Somerset
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 January 2012
Extract
The gold ornament here described was found over a hundred years ago at the north end of the hamlet of Galhampton and just within the parish of Castle Cary, but it has never been recorded before. It was recently presented to the Somerset Museum at Taunton Castle by Dr. R. E. H. Woodforde (who now resides in Hertfordshire). It had been handed down in his family, and was dug up by his great-grandfather, Colonel William Woodforde (1758–1844) in his garden on the west side and close to the main road from Castle Cary to Ilchester.

page 141 note 2 Galhampton proper is in the parish of North Cadbury. The garden and house (long since demolished) are represented by a wooded enclosure, nine furlongs south of Castle Cary church, and close to the south-west of Redlands Farm and Victoria Cottages (6-inch O.S. map, Sheet LXV, S.W.). The place is three miles north of the large camp known as Cadbury Castle, or Camelot.

page 142 note 3 I make no claim that this article contains a complete list of the discoveries of this type of gold ornament. Indeed, there may be several omissions. Some of the early accounts of the finding of these and similar ornaments are extremely vague and unsatisfactory. When our knowledge of this type develops, however, the references I have given may be found useful to those working upon the same subject in the future.
