Stewart also mentions in his intro to the article one of my fav books of childhood and still really. Janet and colin Bord' Mysterious Britain. This was my 'in' to all things folklorie, megalithic and cryptozoology. My parents were not so accomadating in stopping for me have a mooch tho, and many a site was passed whilst I pressed my nose to the car window wistfuly. Made up for it since, and still carry a copy in the car (well when it's working) just in case.
Another book I loved from when I was in my mid teens was Origins of Britain by Lloyd and Jennifer laing. I guess a lot of the info dates and inferences are 'out-dated' but still a good in to the various ages of Britain, and can be had fer pennies (relatively speaking or £2.51 if you want exact amounts).
