The Hill Figure Horses of England & Wales via Google Earth

Hi Folks.This is a short Google Earth vid of all the chalk & earth hill horses in England & Wales. I think I've included them all but feel free to message me if you know of any that I've missed out. I would have liked to include the only hill horse in Scotland, a horse carved out of the quartz rock of Mormon Hill near Fraserburgh on the north east coast, but unfortunately the Google Earth image for the whole of Aberdeenshire is a blanket of cloud! I made this with the movie function on my digital camera so the quality isn't that great, but I will be posting all the coordinates shortly so you can have fun finding them for yourself.
Music is by the talented Nathan McRee and is from the Tomb Raider 1 playstation/p.c game.
Hope you like it!

these horses years ago was to let the people know to land, and then they got covered to stop bad people coming in, something like that anyway!!

That was lovely, thank you. If you know of any other chalk figures, I hope you'll do another video of them.
