About a year and a half ago, a friend and I was up on Haworth Moor in Yorkshire, and we decided to build a KT sign on the hillside next to Top Withins (the farmhouse which has been linked with Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights). There was a lot of stone lying around which had once been part of the farmhouse, and we pieced together the KT. When I went back there five months later most of the stones which made up the KT had been removed, but the image was still clearly visible, vividly marked into the hillside in light green!
