In 1929, previous to the Western Morning News report shown in the post above, Dorothy Lidell’s excavation of Hembury Hillfort was announced on p3 of the Proceedings of the Devon Archaeological Exploration Society, Vol 1, Part 1. The following two pages featured an account of the hillfort by Gertrude MacAlpine Woods as well as a larger, clearer version of the plan from A. Hadrian Allcroft’s ‘Earthwork of England’.
