I deliberately cropped the most of the Jolly Sailor pub sign out... but had i left it in, it may have only taken 9 minutes to solve instead of 10

I just noticed something... There are a lot of bungalows, presumably many of them occupied by elderly people who struggle with stairs (suggested by the road sign warning of slow-moving OAPs). Only thing is... how do they get up that steep hill on foot!

Not at all - it was the pub sign wot did it.
Without the "JO" I'd have been completely lost.
Googled "Jolly pub" and looked for a matching image.

OK, I think this may be a very easy photo, but it required a lot of effort to get it!

It has to be the view looking NW from the top of the Trough of Bowland climb?

Yes indeed. I suspected you might be first to it. A favourite of ours, starting and finishing at the rather wonderful Aspinall Arms, which features a beer garden bordering the Ribble which it's hard to imagine being bettered anywhere in the land.

I've been away for a couple of hours. I'm surprised that @MontyVeda didn't beat me to it!
Ok, here you go... (I have painted out some giveaway signs in the gap between two of the bikes)
Name That Road!

It's Beeston Castle in Cheshire, from the west. I'll post the precise link later.

I could point out that it is "Name That Road", not "Name That Adjacent Ruined Castle" but that would be silly!
