They also have a section on leylines. Another reference to the maths course I did on the Open University many moons ago...
Spiritual leylines connect ancient sites such as burial chambers and standing stones. Also, cathedrals and ancient parish churches were often built on such ancient sites. They showed on this maths course how if you draw lines connecting every such "site of power" to every other such site, there are so many in the British Isles that there is no point that is not within a few metres of such a line.
When I was living in Anglesey - a land of myth, ancient wisdom and mystery - I asked why the ancient standing stone circle in Llangefni wasn't a major tourist attraction. "Silly boy, we put those
Gorsedd stones up when we hosted the National Eisteddfod. We just don't tell the tourists that. They're all over Wales."
I also queried the number of monoliths in the fields on the island. "Back scratchers. When dry stone walls were replaced by barbed wire, the cows would scratch themselves on the wire and pull the fence down. So the farmer borrows a JCB and erects a big quarry stone in the field for the cows to scratch themselves. Bugger all to do with ancient folk. Just don't tell anyone I told you."
Oops. I blabbed.
