Surrey Archaeological Society: Caesar's Camp, Wimbledon, [south-west London], 1873. The Society visited the remains of an ancient military intrenchment on Wimbledon-common...and it was curious to observe that the camp of our modern Volunteer Riflemen was within sight and hearing of this old temporary fortification of a warlike host, assembled there perhaps two thousand years ago. Mr. W. H. Peek...has during three or four years past made laudable efforts to secure the preservation of Caesar's Camp.'...Mr. Godwin-Austin read a paper explaining all that was known about the camp, and the various theories respecting it. There was no doubt it was not one of the Roman camps, not having the quadrangle peculiar to them. His impression was that it was built by the original Celtic population, and not by Romans, Danes, or Saxons, though it might afterwards have been possessed and used by some of them. How it got the name of Caesar's Camp was uncertain; the same name was given to others where it was very unlikely he ever went...We hope that Mr. Peek and the Surrey Archaeological Society will be successful in protecting this monument of antiquity from being demolished and effaced'.
