Winter Solstice 2016

Having dropped Raye in town I looked for a nearby undiscovered place!  Ventured to Darley Abbey and found a ruin of part of the Abbey. Checking the rods I found a leyline running approx. EW.
Then took path round the nearby church to the hermitage. This place was very similar to Anchor church at Ingleby, but in that case the hermit was an anchorite and also it was in front of a stream, whereas here it was on higher ground. Again found a leyline EW, but not directly in line with the Abbey. I wonder if I had found a helix ley (like Michael and Mary ley).

According to my calculation it disects Castle Ring. Further research had shown that another source thought it disected Meon Hill near Stratford-on-Avon, so I needed to visit both! As an aside, I also found that a couple had come up with a theory about 'leylines'. They thought they were natural tracks made by animals, posibly migrating herds, and then used by man later as communication networks, interesting. At Castle Ring I walked completely round the large hill fort. My rods crossed all round the perimeter except for either side where I found the leyline, 23 paces in width again, disecting the site in a SW-NE direction. Looking NE in the distance was the coal power station at Rugely. Castle Ring was thought to have been occupied around AD 50, by the Celtic Cornovii tribe.The fort at it...

Had a look round, nice church. Got passports stamped. Then started drive to llangelynnin. Drove around a bit, no go. Stopped in car, me a little walk, still no go. Decided to input church again...noticed option for "old church". Brill, found it. But only car park. Long walk round through wet areas of fields, and climb. Found! Realized congregation in (found to be for Harvest Festival). Had a sing then realised not brought passport books! After 20m returned. R already getting to know everybody.

Viewed church after walk from car. No passport stamps. Me got car, parked in dodgy place, walked ...
