KIMSBURY, a Roman camp in Spoonbed tything, Painswick parish, Gloucestershire; on Spoonbed hill, 6 miles SE of Gloucester. It covers about 3 acres; is doubly entrenched, and in a good state of preservation; was occupied by Earl Godwin in 1052, and by the royalists in 1643; has yielded coins and other Roman relics; and commands a very fine view over the Severn, and to the Malvern hills and the Welsh mountains.
