and Ebony
A holiday ley hunt in the two very similar areas of the Isle of Avalon at Glastonbury
and the Isle of Ebony near Tenterden in Kent. It includes visits to places on
the St. Michael Line and the Great Isosceles Triangle baseline
Northamptonshire
Creations
An earth mysteries field trip with the Travel and Earth Mysteries
Society in 2000, visiting the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a famous round church
in Northampton, the Gothic Guildhall, and a house once occupied by architect
Charles Rennie Mackintosh. This was followed by the Eleanor Cross, Hunsbury
Hillfort, Brixworth Saxon Church and culminating with the amazing Rushton Triangular
Lodge, whose three sides are aligned with three good leys.
A Visit
to Tony Wedd Country
A field trip in 1992 to Chiddingstone in Kent, home of the
late Tony Wedd. He postulated the link between leys and flying saucers and brought
the ley system out of the doldrums into public knowledge. Earth mysterians Eileen
Roche (formerly Grimshaw) and Jimmy Goddard and ufologist Gordon Millington
visit sites connected with Tony Wedd, including a cave he thought was once a
temple of Mithras. There is also the voice of Tony recorded at the British UFO
Research Association (BUFORA) Norrthern Conference in 1968, with the original
slides he showed then.
Coldrum
Field Trip
A field trip in August, 1989, with the London Earth Mysteries
Circle and the Surrey Earth Mysteries Group, visiting the area of Kent occupied
by the Medway Megaliths. These are a group of Neolithic chambered tombs, including
the Coldrum Long Barrow, the Addington Long Barrow, The Chestnuts Long Barrow,
Kits Coty House and Little Kits Coty. At The Chestnuts, owner of the property
Mrs. Bygraves speaks about Neolithic life and shows the many tools and implements
found on the site. The trip finishes at Chiddingstone, former home of the late
Tony Wedd, who brought study of leys from obscurity into public knowledge.
The
Medway Megaliths and the E-Line
Two Neolithic chambered tombs at Addington in Kent are points on the E-line,
the widest and most powerful ley yet found. We visit other connected sites in
the area, and then travel along the E-line, which runs from Leysdown on the
Isle of Sheppey to Cape Cornwall, and also passes through the Cerne Abbas Giant
hill figure in Dorset.
Skyways
and Landmarks
Tony Wedd of Chiddingstone brought the subject of leys out
of obscurity into public knowledge. This talk by him, with his original slides,
was to the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA) in 1968
Ecology
and Earth Mysteries Field Trip
A field trip in 1990 in which Chris Hall takes us around his native Hampshire
to emphasise the importance of conserving the environment. We visit ancient
woodland and see a rare service tree and woodland orchids, and see a threatened
wild flower meadow covered with snakeshead friteillaries. We also visit sighting
viewpoints on the ley system, particularly the Odiham Firs pine clump ley nodal
point, with a number of alignments crossing Kent and Surrey.
St.
Catherine's Hill Field Trip
A field trip to St. Catherine's Hill, Winchester in the early
1990s, dowsing the maze on its summit and viewing Winchester Cathedral, which
one researcher believed was on the site of a stone circle. Then to Cheesefoot
Head where two crop circles were visible. This is on the famous powerful E-line,
though we did not know it at the time. From here we travelled to Butser Hill
Ancient Farm with its reconstructed ancient buildings, and finally to Selborne,
with its ancient yew, home of the naturalist Gilbert White.
The
Silchester Ley
A field trip in 1994 following a ley to the Roman city site of Calleva Atrebatum
at Silchester in Hampshire. This ley was originally found by Alfred Watkins,
the discover of the ley system, in the 1920s and described in his book The
Old Straight Track. The line links two Roman temples in the city, the present
parish church and the site of the Christian church that was in the city. The
last was shown by Watkins to have been sited mathematically as it is at the
meeting point of lines joining all the corners of the settlement. We follow
the ley from an ancient site at Laleham through Thorpe and Sunningdale churches
and along the striking coincident Nine Mile Ride, to the old city where we visit
the Roman Christian church site.
A
Walk on St. Ann's Hill
A visit to St. Ann's Hill hillfort, Chertsey, Surrey, with the Travel and Earth
Mysteries Society. This is a powerful hill with one of the frequently-occurring
tunnel legends (in this case going to nearby Chertsey Abbey). This could be
memory of a ley, as Alfred Watkins suggested at similar places, and in fact
there is an alignment going to the Abbey site passing through Virginia Water
Church, a tower and earthwork at Hersham, and Chessington Church. We see the
Nun's Well, a healing well on the hill and a pattern of energies is detected
there by dowsing.
Tony
Robinson's Messages
In 2009 Tony Robinson, well known for the Time Team archaeology TV series, presented
three programmes on historical paranormal events. One of these was on Frederick
Bligh Bond, eminent architect and archaeologist, who made many discoveries at
Glastonbury Abbey, claiming to be guided by medieval monks communicating through
automatic writing. As experimental archaeology Tony tried automatic writing
with an automatist, June Elleni Laine, and produced two scripts after posing
two questions - Were the bones Bligh Bond found near the high altar those of
Abbot Whiting, the last abbot, and what was the name of the monk who communicated
with Bligh Bond? The results were very interesting, but when I captured the
scripts from the screen there were other things found which had not seemed to
be noticed. Together with the things noticed they seemed to make intelligible
messages relating to the questions asked.
UFOs
in Surrey 1967
This video begins with a BBC Panorama programme reporting on a skywatch at Pewley
Down, Guildford in June 1967, organised by SIGAP and BUFORA. It was recorded
in sound only (there was no home video in 1967) and only one of the accompanying
pictures was of the programme - four seated skywatchers, one wih binoculars.
The other pictures were appropriate pictures obtained elsewhere. UFOlogists
Edgar Hatvany and Colin McCarthy were interviewd, as were several others of
the watchers. 1967 was a time of a Europe-wide flap and the programme is followed
by other reports from Surrey, culminating with one seen from Newlands Corner
with what seemed to be dphysical evidence, which seemed to have connection with
the Mariner 4 space probe pictures from two years earlier.
The
First Ley
A field trip with the
Society of Ley Hunters in June, 2015 to follow the first ley found by Alfred
Watkins of Hereford in 1921, and to dedicate a memorial standing stone to him
and his discovery, at the Blackwardine cross-roads where the discovery was made.
He wrote in his book Early British Trackways, published in 1922: “A visit to
Blackwardine led me to note on the map a straight line starting from Croft Ambury,
lying on parts of Croft Lane past the Broad, over hill points, through Blackwardine,
over Risbury Camp, and through the high ground at Stretton Grandison where I
surmise a Roman station”. He followed up the clue of sighting from hill top,
unhampered by other theories, and found it yielding astounding results in all
districts, the straight lines to his amazement passing over and over again through
the same class of objects, which he soon found to be (or to have been) practical
sighting points. Stretton Grandison Church is also on the ley.
Jesus
and Uxella
There are many legends of Cornwall and Somerset that speak of Jesus coming to
Britain in his teenage years, with his great-uncle Joseph of Arimathea, when
the Bible is silent as to his whereabouts. But where did they land when they
were en route for Glastonbury and the Mendips? There seems to be forgotten evidence
that it may have been Puriton, then a port on the River Parrett, adjacent to
a road which ran along the Polden Ridge to Street. Although now a small village,
it could have been the lost Roman town of Uxella, mentioned in the Ravenna Cosmography
(a record of the settlements in the empire), but which has never been located.

Surrey
Earth Mysteries
A video made in 1990 for the Surrey Earth Mysteries Group. It explores the subject
of leys, discovered as alignments of ancient sites by Alfred Watkins in the
1920s, and continuing with their implications of subtle energies found in the
1960s. We see an exhibit on leys that was at Weybridge Museum and a ley from
Chertsey to Worplesdon via Horsell Common is followed and analysed. https://youtu.be/RFViGLhW_LM
Whirls
of Energy
This field trip in 1991 turned out to have a theme of whirls or vortices of
subtle energy, detectable by dowsing, connected with hillforts, stone circles,
turf labyrinths and crop circles. We start at Old Sarum, dowsing the famous
ley from there to Salisbury Cathedral, then see various labyrinths, including
the one at St. Catherine's Hill, Winchester. We compare reactions at the Nine
Ladies stone circle in Derbyshire and deer stands in Cornwall. We then dowse
in Winchester Cathedral and visit the crypt with its wells, and finally visit
a crop circle formation at Cheesefoot Head which appeared that year, and dowse
the energies there.
Sacred
Springs of Surrey
This is a field trip with the Travel and Earth Mysteries Society in 1995 in
which we visited several holy wells and springs in Surrey, including Edward
the Confessor's Well at Sutton Place, St. Catherine's Spring at Guildford and
the healing well at Dunsfold.
Clump
Alignments round Addlestone
This is a video made in the late 1980s examining a pattern of leys around Addlestone
in Surrey, with a high proportion of Scots pine clumps, which Alfred Watkins
only accepted as confirmatory points as an origin in prehistoric times did not
seem feasible. The strange phenomenon which has come to be called subconscious
siting is also discussed, in which leys seem to regenerate themselves through
subconsciously impelling the building of certain things at significant places.
The
Buckingham Palace Ley Line
The alignment of the Mall, the impressive tree-lined approach to Buckingham
Palace, with the Palace itself, points directly to Charing Cross, the ancient
centre of London (adjacent to Trafalgar Square) from which distances to other
places were measured. In the other direction, the alignment passes through an
impressive list of interesting places (including two other palaces), a large
number of which seem to have royal connections.
Runnymede
and Ankerwycke
On Coopers Hill near Egham in Surrey, adjacent to the Air Forces Memorial there,
there is a meeting point of ley alignments coming from the site of Edward III's
Round Table building at Windsor Castle, the ancient Wraysbury church which has
a circular bank which may be older, the Egham Causeway which may be part of
a Roman road and the site of ancient stones, and Ankerwycke Priory ruins across
the river. All these lines cross Runnymede Meadow, the traditional site of the
sealing of Magna Carta by King John.
Ley
Hunting in Oxfordshire
Ley alignments found
during the Network of Ley Hunters' Moot at Oxford in May 2016, which include
a ley centre in south Oxford which is the meeting point of a ley through Oxford
found by Alfred Watkins (discoverer of leys), one by Laurence Main with sites
associated with Winston Churchill, and one from the Rollright Stones. Visits
to Oxfordshire sites Waylands Smithy, Uffington Castle, White Horse Hill, Dragon
Hill and the Rollright Stones with Caroline Hoare and Gary Biltcliffe revealed
the energy streams in the landscape, and there is a talk by Bart O'Farrell at
Waylands Smithy about dowsing the energies at ancient stones.
Voices
from Space
This is the story of
the mysterious tape recordings of Philip Rodgers, of Grindleford, Derbyshire,
who in the 1950s seemed to receive electronic voice phenomena similar to many
others, but seemingly unique in that they claimed to be from extraterrestrials
rather than disembodied spirits. They seemed to give indications of extraterrestrial
language translations as well as help with building free energy devices, including
one which was apparently an aid to telepathic communication and another related
one which was a heating/healing device. The video includes the only one of Philip's
recordings which now survives.
The
Pitch Hill Project
A year-long project in 1990-1991 investigating the ley that came to be called
the E-line, seemingly the widest and most powerful ley yet found. The line crossed
Surrey in a generally western direction, but was later found to run from Cape
Cornwall in the west to Leysdown on the Isle of Sheppey in the east, and also
to pass through the Cerne Abbas giant.
A
Walk on Stanton Moor
A walk on Stanton Moor, Derbyshire in 1990, one of the finest collections of
Bronze Age remains in the British Isles. The leys at the Nine Ladies stone circle
are dowsed, and one from the King Stone that goes to Haddon Hall. There is also
what seems to be a henge monument south of the stones.
A
Visit to Kingley Vale
A field trip with the
Travel and Earth Mysteries Society visiting the nature reserve of Kingley Vale,
near Chichester. Brian Savage, the Warden, guided us round the site, showing
us the ancient yew wood on its lower part, and the tumuli and dew ponds on the
summit, and showed us the variety of wildlife there. We also see the leys that
cross the reserve, one of which goes to Chichester Cathedral, which is visible
from the summit.
Ley
Hunting in Warwickshire and Shakespeare Mysteries
A sequel to "Ley Hunting in Oxfordshire". The leys found there extended
to Stratford-upon-Avon, and further links to the Spine of Albion currents found,
as well as enigmatic associations with the life of Shakespeare and places in
Stratford associated with him, also how these places are arranged in the form
of the constellation of Cygnus, the Swan.
The
Hidden Unity
How the subconscious siting of ley points indicates a unity of world faiths.
The
Exhibition That Never Was
In the 1960s Tony Wedd of Chiddingstone, Kent formed an organisation called
the STAR Fellowship which was interested in claims of contact with extraterrestrials
such as those of George Adamski, Howard Menger and George Van Tassel. He planned
to have a travelling exhibition of the evidence for flying saucers which would
spread the knowledge of sightings of these craft and contacts with their occupants,
but unfortunately this was never realised. In the 1980s I made a CD-ROM called
"The Legacy of Tony Wedd", which was a virtual form of this proposed exhibition,
and presented the work Tony had done in the connected fields of Flying Saucers,
Landscape Energies and Lost Technology. This has now been converted into a video
for YouTube, and in the process it has becomne a truly travelling exhibition
according to Tony's original vision, as it will be accessible round the world.
The
Somerset Zodiac and its Leys
Tony Wedd's talk about the Somerset Zodiac and "Mother Cary's Chickens",
also known as the Cock and Hen Leys, associated with the Virgo figure.

The
Heptic Geometry of Stonehenge and Earth Energies
h
Tony Wedd's talk about his research at Stonehenge, discovering that its geometry
is based on a seven-point star
Stone
Age Science in the Preseli Hills
A field trip at the Network of Ley Hunters moot in Wales in June, 2017 in which
Robin Heath demonstrates the advanced knowledge of geometry of the ancient people,
shown by the landscape geometry of the sites in the Preseli Hills. He also demonstrates
how a stone circle is surveyed, and shows how a Pythagorean triangle formed
by a rope could have been used as a solar/lunar calendar in prehistoric times.
The
Princetown Triangle
Princetown, a village located high on Dartmoor in Devon, seems to have three
ley centres (meeting points of ley alignments) in quite close proximity, and
they form an isosceles triangle with a perpendicular, a form noted in leys in
many places. Some time after finding these leys, I realised that the two right-angled
triangles forming the isosceles triangle were of the same proportion (12-13-5)
as the lunation triangle demonstrated by Robin Heath at the Network of Ley Hunters
Moot in 2017, as the basis of a solar/lunar calendar which could have been used
in prehistoric times. (See
Stone Age Science in the Preseli Hills).
Ley
Hunting in Staffordshire and Shugborough Mysteries
A three-day field trip with the Network of Ley Hunters, following the Staffordshire section of the Spine of Albion ley which runs from the Isle of Wight to Scotland. Led by its discoverers, Gary Biltcliffe and Caroline Hoare, we follow the alignment and its associated serpentine energy currents Belinus and Elen from Lichfield in the south to The Cloud in the north, and encounter th and Glastonburye mysteries of the monuments at Shugborough Hall.
Ley
Hunting in Somerset and Subconscious Siting in Shepton Mallet
The investigation of ley alignments in Somerset which seem to give evidence that ley points can be subconsciously sited. This means that the system seems to be self-repairing by subconsciously influencing people to build structures , particularly places of worship (of all faiths), at certain locations. Two modern structures - a stone circle at Shepton Mallet and a standing stone at Glastonbury - are shown to be on good leys with ancient sites.
