Timpson's Leylines by John Timpson

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. Superbly complemented with Derry Brabbs' photography, this book will appeal to the armchair leyhunter as well as the enthusiast.
John Timpson is a much-loved personality with a legion of fans up and down the country. A stalwart of Radio 4's TODAY programme, for years his distinctive voice seduced millions of listeners. His books, TIMPSON'S ENGLAND, TIMPSON'S BOOK OF CURIOUS DAYS, and TIMPSON'S TRAVELS IN EAST ANGLIA have established him as a master historian of the bizarre in human behaviour.
