Some points of interest this alignment passes through are:
St. Mary’s, East Barnet; Halliwick Hospital, Friern Barnet; Muswell Hill; The Pavilion in Highgate Woods; St. Joseph’s at the summit of Highgate Hill; Pond Square, Highgate Hill; The United Reform Church, South Grove, Highgate; The Catacombs in Highgate Cemetery; Highgate Baptist Chapel at the corner of Chetwynd Road, NW5; The Church of the Holy Trinity, Clarence Way, NW1; Our Lady of the Halo, Arlington Road, Camden; St. Mary Magdalene, Munster Square, NW1; The Central Synagogue, Hallam Street, W1; The Queen Victoria Memorial Fountain in front of Buckingham Palace; Westminster Cathedral; The Church of St. George and St. Andrew, Patmore Street, Nine Elms; St. Peter’s Parish Church, Clapham Manor Road; St. Leonard’s Parish Church, Streatham; The Church of Immanuel with St. Anselm, Streatham Common; St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Church, South Streatham; Pollard’s Hill, Norbury.
What is immediately striking from the list is the preponderance of places of worship; the second prominent point is the immense variation in age and type of worship of each of the buildings. Westminster Cathedral rubs shoulders with the Central Synagogue as well as Baptist and United Reform churches, and no doubt the others represent various shades of opinion in between. Few would seem to have very many points of agreement on matters of religion, yet the proportion of modern buildings indicates the element of subconscious siting. All have been placed on the line for some reason by powers which for most would be unimaginable; there must be some common denominator which links them all. But if a single ley, even one as good as this, is convincing, how much more so is a centre - a convergence of leys on one spot, with a monument to mark it. It is one of these we consider next, which even more strikingly illustrates the ley system’s acceptance of many and varied places of worship.
