Game: Name that road!

[ClichéGuevara]

I don't know it but I bet that somebody else will!

I'll check my OS maps though because the shapes of the road and hillside are pretty distinctive looking and I might just spot them.

It's not 'Abbey Ruins Yorkshire' so that narrows it down a bit. 👍

Without asking for too many clues at this point... Is it close to the east coast of England?

Feels a bit early to give clues!
Anything in particular making you think of the East Coast?

I'd be giving you a clue if I told you that...


Oh, go on then... I can't quite make out what is in the far distance on the right of the picture. It looks slightly like it might be the coast. If so, it is a case of working out which one. Obviously somewhere lumpy!

What, somewhere in the vicinity of Scarborough to Whitby and surroundings?
No!!!

I DID look there but couldn't spot it!

Best look in some other part of the country!

Deffo not around here. I would recognise that road and they look like cows in the distance and there are virtually no cows in the Peak District, just sheep

Those hills look pretty high compared to the lowland off to the right, got to be getting on for 1000ft. South Downs? The hills don't look particularly glaciated

 

[lazybloke]

Well below 1000 feet.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

I agree, I think it’s the coast with reasonably high cliffs

 

[lazybloke]

I was thinking it could be sort of Wolds-ish.

Depends on what you understand by 'wold'. The wikipedia definition covers a significant area of England.



Not much of a help, but that's eliminated Scotland, Wales and NI.

I'm rubbish at this.

I tried to find roads with rumble strip edging, and ended up in Texas. I've scoured the Lincolnshire Wolds, spotted a likely looking shaped road, and drop the little googleman in the middle of Cadwell Park Racecourse.

Admirable tenacity, but you're in the wrong part of the country.

I'm taking a break and then I'm going to try down south again!

 

[nickyboy]

I'm getting a chalky, dry valley vibe
