Having been the archaeological manager of the Silbury Project for English Heritage for 7 years I would have hoped to have received a copy a little earlier ie from English Heritage itself, as a matter of common courtesy.
Even after all that has happened I am still slightly surprised and disappointed that none of the managers in English Heritage could bring themselves to do this.

For a monument at Silbury Hill
This mound in some remote and dateless day
Rear’d o’er a Chieftain of the Age of Hills,
May here detain thee Traveller! from thy road
Not idly lingering. In his narrow house
Some warrior sleeps below: his gallant deeds
Haply at many a solemn festival
The Bard has harp’d, but perished is the song
Of praise, as o’er these bleak and barren downs
The wind that passes and is heard no more.
Go traveller on thy way, and contemplate
Glory’s brief pageant, and remember then
That one good turn was never wrought in vain.
Robert Southey, 1797
