About Magnetic Hill
A supposedly magnetic hill, which through the use of powerful magnetic disturbances of a by-gone era, still attracts those on vehicles of the correct carbon-metallic make-up. On parking at the base of the slop, it’s said that forces will make your vehicle move before your very eyes! This is something which visitor needs to experience for themselves. Bring a compass to be astounded as it will point in the exact direction of North!
