In the case mentioned 6 sites within 280 metres with no others in the immediate area . 100 % ?
Three points , whether in a straight line or with the central one slightly off don't convince me of intentionality whether in an alignment or based on Orion's belt .

And presumably if you are going to claim 3,4,5 or whatever in a row, then the suggestion is that they were all built or placed in position at the same time if their purpose was to simply be a means of getting from A to B. That is clearly not the case when some sites are older/newer than others...unless other lesser markers were used initially of course i.e. timber posts or single stones.

I tend to agree in both cases but the fact I don't know why - or how I could judge slightly worse/better examples respectively - is a bit frustrating.

As for long distance leys the best evidence about those is contained on our very own TMA Technicolour Map. It shows millions of them, or doesn't.
