Interesting. Looking at that map of the "magic line" it looked like it passed through Skipton. I did a check and Skipton itself is slightly west but the village down the road from us is exactly under it, well as near as damn it - I could adjust the map to 2.00003 degrees West!

Our house is 2.5km west of the line - somehow I don't think my old Silva compass will notice the difference :grin:

I think its Langton Matravers in Dorset where all three north lines converge. Just inland of Purbeck coast.

It passes through Cannock Chase I noticed. Must have a look at the expected date and perhaps bivvy out when it arrives here.
