Tracing ancient alignments is the best way I know of discovering lost prehistoric monuments.
The tumulus on the top of Redhill common(aka Whitepost Hill) is wonderfully aligned with two hills at the base of the common's hill....there is a church on one and it's attendant school on the other(the area is known as St. Johns)...but the alignment is more obvious on the A23 at Earlswood common...I might have a go on Google Earth on that tonight........

I've spent a fair bit of time with my arms wide apart, looking down one, and then looking down the other. (GoogleEath doesn't have that view yet). My explanation is that collecting things together in lines was a way of ordering the world - reducing the chaos - and that huts were situated more sensibly, using the criteria of shelter and access to fresh water.
