,The most famous layline in Britain is in Wiltshire on Windmill hill. Laylines are associated with paranormal and unexplainable happenings in the places where they cross.. Such as crop circles in Wiltshire + UFO sightings on Ilkley moor. I recently found out that the hill where 1 of these pillars used to be (dont know if it is still there) is actually called Windmill Hill. It used to be at the back of Beeston Primary School. . . . , Post

,I looked in an old Leeds A-Z street map. I drew a pencil line through Windmill Hill in Beeston, in a Noth West direction. (On research this is the direction of the main line) Its strange how so many churches chapels burial points that the line runs through. I saw a pic of 'the British Society of Dowsers' , a bunch of 'hardy' looking blokes armed with crystal pendants, small rods and V shaped sticks. They should'v taken the cameraman with them!, Post

Typically, a trig point is a concrete post set on a high point such as a hill with a metal disc inset in the top which you can put your theodolite in. The trig point is at an accurately surveyed and documented position so you can survey other stuff relative to one or more trig points. Sorry,its not paranormal.
