that'll be no, and no 
it's a fiendish clue, not a blatantly obvious one

I might as well say what I have been looking for because it is doing my head in!
I assumed the Lakes. From the shadows, I think the road is heading somewhere between E and S, so let's say SE. There is a road off to the right, so that would be something like SE to SW and the signs suggest that people might be heading that way to get to another village or town. The warning sign about cyclists might not add much, but it did cross my mind that it might be a cycle route.

Oh, and obviously looking towards some big Lakeland mountains!

I had similar to Colin plus I think the white board on the ground is for an Inn. Again a higher resolution would be great, but since it’s off Streetview no chance.

Plus a stream running alongside the road

And... I had been thinking around Cockermouth, and I just noticed that the B52..92 passes through the town!

I had been looking at Lorton but couldn’t get that to work.

Well done - That was about the one road around there that I didn't check! 
I made the mistake of thinking 'smaller than a B-road' but forgot that some of the A-roads round there are more like B-roads, and B-roads more like lanes.

I was wondering if it was Skiddaw or Blencathra blurred in background. But checked Lorton first in case Whinlatter was in the mix.

I am still quite pleased though... I did get the area, the direction of the road, and the cycleway crossing just down the road.
I didn't spot the beck or the pub sign though.
