That’s a close-up of what Google Maps shows at a construction site along the M6 motorway just east of Preston, England.

According to The Daily Mail, the satellite image is a couple years old and there are now trees covering that area. The construction site is for a nature reserve.

The Daily Mail quotes a couple religious officials in the area who say the image is “remarkable,” but they won’t be encouraging any pilgrimages to the area.
