Challenge - Where is this? III

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

It most certainly is - a fine piece of Yorkshire limestone.

I've walked past it in several directions over the past few decades (and abseiled down it about 150 years ago )

OK, I don't think this should be too difficult...



(sorry for the width)

Ladybower reservoir - Peak District ??

Realise I'm a bit late to the party on this but Dennis was wrong on that one. It is actually Derwent Reservoir, Ladybower is downstream and the dam doesn't have the twin towers.

Sorry folks, pedantry over

Well if nobody else is having a guess at this one I'll have a go, its looks like Wimpole Hall the NT property in Cambridgeshire.

Certainly is. Over to you...

Thanks for pointing that out. I must admit I wrongly think of them as one and the same. I am attaching a couple of pics taken on the same day for clarification.

Sorry about the delay ,so here's the next one - not too steep I hope

I could be totally wrong, but that looks like it's taken from the top of the hill in Lynton, looking down on to Lynmouth.

If I'm right, you can just see the Rhenish tower popping up behind the top bridge.

Hi Caz - You're totally right, well done, over to you.

Hi Caz - You're totally right, well done, over to you.

Thanks Martin. I know it very well, an ex-partner's mother lives there... and I've walked down (and up) that hill several times - much prefer taking the railway: as you can see from my shot, it's almost vertical there!!

I'll put something up tonight as I'm on my netbook at work with no access to my photos...

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

As my last entries have been from Europe (Belgium and a couple from different regions of France) I thought I'd try something closer to home this time.

Don't think this should take you too long...

I think it's Canon's Ashby, but it's ages since I've been and even after a dig around Google images i remain a bit uncertain!

Spot on Drmark. I cheated as it's a slightly unusual angle: taken from down at the bottom of the garden, by what's known locally as the "lion and lollipop" gate.

I see it at least 10 times a week as I drive to and from work.

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

Here's something slightly different. I chose the shot not for its photographic qualities but to make sure it had the right balance of clues and (I hope) no giveaways.

Aircraft buffs will probably get this right away but, for everyone else, where (and what) is this?

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

That's shut you all up...

Anyone want a clue?

Re: Challenge - Where is this? III

I'm thinking Duxford - but as to the aircraft, I don't have a clue!
