Im not saying that there may not be a town or part of a town that was designed for or for what people thought was harnessing earth energies or to some other plan, but this one does not ring true for me.these are the reasons, and please feel free to correct me here!
1st thing was that he said
Burrell Street and King Street, meet at a point, like the bottom part of a star, and it is this which alerted me
that 2 streets meet made him think of FM's and ley lines? a little odd but lets carry on.
running vertically, has James Square at the top. The square, of course, is a well-known Masonic symbol, but Burrell street has an eight-sided square at the top, called the Octagon
An 8 sided square? wouldnt that just be...an octogan not a square? not exactly a masonic square, i think that part was maybe a little misunderstood.
Between the two streets is (Masonic) Lodge Street leading into West High Street
Just adding "Masonic" before lodge doesnt making it a masonic street.
The biggest thing that really got me though is this;
If you draw a line between
the points of the set square, and another through the
compasses you will form a six-pointed star. This is the
symbol upon which the town of Crieff has been designed
Why would FM's "edit" the square and compasses just to fit a design when there was already a symbol that matched in use?
6 pointed star? wouldnt that just be the Seal of Solomon? sorry so much with THIS site doesnt ring true or at least not well researched enough to be convincing. more a case of stretching the theories to fit a story the designer wants, especially with this ending statement.
It is now obvious that the Freemasons had a profound knowledge of earth energies and used it to plan towns, cities, churches, cathedrals and burial-grounds in the United Kingdom, carrying their knowledge abroad to the United States, where they built the capital, Washington, and many others.
