Game: Name that road!

[ColinJ]

I was thinking a butter tub for the limestone feature on right.

Do 'butter tubs' appear anywhere other than Butter Tubs (between Hardraw and Thwaite)?

From what I remember of my accidental suicide attempt *** at Butter Tubs, the terrain is more rugged there.




*** I thought it was a good idea to hop off my bike, clamber over a fence, and pee into a Butter Tub. Seriously! Allow me to confirm that damp limestone, cycling shoes, and sheer drops into a foul pit of darkness are NOT a good combination...

 

[Sea of vapours]

As far as I know, the only geographical feature called 'buttertub(s)' is the Buttertubs Pass, and it's not that. Shockingly, it's not even in Yorkshire! It is, however, somewhere in the bit of England which is not Yorkshire.

 

[ColinJ]

I thought that it would be Buttertubs rather than Butter Tubs but the words are split on the OS map. I think I will switch back to one word anyway, because it looks better!

Well, it is a big clue knowing that we can eliminate Yorkshire. Here's another clue - it has hills!

 

[Sea of vapours]

The only place I can find it as two words is on the OS map. Clearly, it must have been once, when it was coined, but no longer.

I think that *is* a pretty big clue. And I've eliminated Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland too. Nor is it Surrey.

Has Robin Hood any part to play in this.

 

[Sea of vapours]

Has Robin Hood any part to play in this.

Not that I'm aware of.

This seems to be more difficult than I intended. I'll see if I can think of a clue that doesn't give it away too much.

 

[Sea of vapours]

A couple of clues then:
- I had to check carefully which county that point is in and it's Cumbria;
- the circular feature is man-made.

 

[Aravis]

The implication that it's near the Cumbrian border was really helpful:

The Shot Moss road (B6276) looking towards Kirkby Stephen. I road I have ridden.

 

[Sea of vapours]

Correct. I thought a few people would actually recognise it, what with it being a notable route.

 

[Mr Celine]

Dammit beat me by five minutes!

 

[Aravis]

Here is the next one. Street View will be of limited assistance here, but I think it's findable.

I intend to be out most of tomorrow on a ride, so when you've solved it feel free to go on with the next.

 

[Dogtrousers]

In @Sea of vapours last one what was the man made circular feature?

 

[Sea of vapours]

According to the OS map, they are disused [mine] shafts. You can see them as circles to the west of the road in this extract from the area.

Here is the next one. Street View will be of limited assistance here, but I think it's findable.

So this is straightforward. We simply get a list of UK dams and reservoirs and check them one by one. Simples.
