When you first hear the theory of ley lines it sounds crazy. The idea that ancient sites (medieval churches, iron age tumuli, Roman dykes etc) are arranged in absolutely straight lines is incredible. Or coincidence that could be matched by randomly lining up petrol stations or telephone boxes (except that they don't line up).
Then you look at a map and find that you can make the historic sites line up.
But nothing prepares you for actually following the route of a ley line and finding that the landscape shows you exactly where it is.
Above: marked in the golden corn on a summer evening.
Above: or made evident by distinctive trees planted on top of a prehistoric burial mound.
