Coldrum Leyline

There are stone monuments older than the glorious Stonehenge, in Kent; there are leylines that run through churches and strange megalithic stone burial chambers.
Moreover, there are ancient longbarrows that are aligned to the equinox sunrise.

We are happy to guide you to these special places of sacred Britain, exploring the local folklore.

Furthermore, we introduce acoustics at ancient sites and dowsing for earth energies.

During our field trip we will hold several lectures, covering various topics related to the sites visited, such as: Sun and Moon alignments, leylines, acoustics, Earth Energy, dowsing, folklore.

TOUR DESCRIPTION

It is interesting to see how the landscape has been changed and yet it still keeps hold of its ancient past and secrets. We will be travelling to one of the South east’s most famous, and yet lesser known leylines. Our journey will start on Pilgrims way.

The White Horse, Aylesford, Kent.
The megalithic site , known as “The White Horse” is a beautiful megalithic stone hidden away in the Kent countryside. It was apparently left behind by the makers of Kits Koty House. It will be our first point of call. An excellent place to start a megalithic, sacred sites field trip.

The Coffin Stone, Aylesford, Kent.
The Coffin Stone is a fine rectangular stone, measuring about 4.40m. by 2.80m. by at least 50cm., which now lies flat in the grass near the “White Horse.”

Little Kits Koty House, Aylesford, Kent.
This site, also known as the Countless Stones, due to the legend that because of the jumbled nature of the stones it is impossible to correctly count them, we shall try to count how many there really are.

Kits Coty House, Aylesford, Kent.
To continue our journey we will travel with our minibus to the famous “Kits Koty house”. After walking across the fields to get to the ancient monument, we will have time to take in the spectacular views across the river Medway, and we can visualise our path to our following destinations. We will be using compasses and maps to take bearings and mark our progression along the leyline.
Kits Koty is an excellent place to hear the acoustic effects of megalithic, monument’s. And we will be engaging in an acoustic test.

Continuing we will pass the site of an ancient river crossing and continue on our leyline Journey.

The Chestnuts, Addington, Kent.
Main Stone Circle and Outlying Monuments dedicated to the Sun and Moon

The next port of call is the site of an ancient monument known as “The Chestnuts” in Addington. This site is older than Stonehenge and has an ancient grandeur all of its own, it sits quietly on private land and we have permission for access.

The Chestnuts is a big complex with monuments dedicated to the Sun and Moon lying close to the site and available for inspection. Although outlying parts of “the Chestnuts” are over grown , the central stone circle is a truly impressive sight and we will be able to spend some time here soaking up the atmosphere.

This stone circle is a magical space the keeper of the stones has dowsing rods that we can use, or bring your own to see how the underground earth currents flow. This is a brilliant experience for anyone who has never practiced dowsing and I have personally witnessed incredible results at this site.

From here we continue to cross the Kent downs until we reach

Coldrum Longbarrow - Burial Mound.
The 21st Century part of our journey is on the road, but when we arrive in the environs of Coldrum Longbarrow we have the option to walk up to the Pilgrims way ancient track and experience the pilgrims roads of the past.

This is an ancient route that crosses the Medway valley.

Coldrum Long Barrow has impressively big stones that command a view along the Leyline we have travelled. It is aligned with churches, and many other sites lost within farmers fields the stones removed by the plough.
Coldrum has an equinox sunrise alignment.

Here we can relax, picnic and make a ceremony to say thank you for a beautiful day.

Drop off at train station with connections to London.
