The John Durden collection consists of 13 artefacts held at the British Museum. Originally excavated by Bartlett in 1852 from a Roman pottery kiln at Crook Hill, New Forest, they were sold separately to Durden, before being acquired by the British Museum in 1892. The pots themselves date to between AD260-370 and are wasters that warped and broke during the firing process.
