"If Cadbury and Dolbury dolven were,
All England might plough with a golden share."
Dolbury is another camp-crowned hill, 4 miles south-east, across the Exe. It is said that in teh bosum of these hills a vast treasure is hidden, and gaurded by a fiery dragon who, at "the mid-hour of night", may be seen on his flight from one to the other, but no English Siegfried has yet acheived the adventure of this double Drachenfels.'
Hope Moncrieff 1895
