Summary[edit]

Description
English: Picture of the Bedford Level, taken while attempting to prove the earth to be flat.
Date
Source (August & September 1904). "Bedford Level Experiment" (PDF). The Earth: A Monthly Magazine of Sense and Science 5 (49 & 50): 1–3. E.A.M. Blount. Archived from the original on January 15, 2017. "This experiment was carried out in misty and very unsatisfactory weather, on May 11th, 1904, before Lady Blount and several scientific gentlemen…if the world be a globe having a circumference of 24,000 miles, the bottom of the screen should have been certainly over 20 feet below the line of vision in the six miles view."
