John Timpson's quirky exploration of the ancient phenomenon of leylines. Fascinated by a chance discovery of an ancient stone marker outside a church, Timpson sets off in his inimitable way to hunt leylines (ancient routes said to be energy lines of the earth) all around the country from the Men-an-Tol standing stones in Cornwall to Hadrian's Wall. As well as exploring history and folklore, he discovers fascinating and intriguing things: a holy well, green men carved on fonts, early preaching crosses and burial mounds. Complemented with Derry Brabb's photography, this book should appeal to the armchair leyhunter as well as the enthusiast.
