The Devil’s Arrows
November 23rd, 2005
This weekend I discovered that a few miles from where I lived as a child there are some standing stones. I never knew. And in fact all around North Yorkshire there are barrows and henges and stones and a whole collection of ancient bits and bobs lying around.
I took a coat hanger that I’d cut in two and dowsed a bit to see if I could detect anything. I met an interesting woman who had a flask of coffee and a GPS gadget and was mapping all these things herself.
The stones were very impressive, just lying around in a field. Take a look at my photos

Hey Tom, are you turning into a new age hippy?
I seem to remember that Julian Cope wrote a massive book about standing stones and ley lines and all that malarky.

Tom in new-age-hippy shock!
It looks like Tom is going all new-age on me. Scary

Well yes.. this is where all started was that Julian Cope came on my ipod (that one that goes neeeeeee-owwww! ) and we got talking about his book which lead to the York Ley Line discovery (and google maps) and then to local standing stones. It’s all very innocent and accidental and not new agey at all, not in the slightest.
Want to buy some cheap crystals?

Ah, you’re on the cheap crystal? That explains everything
