Game: Name that road!

Fields look chalky

Yes and no conifers to indicate acid ground.

looks like a radome on the horizon but the only ones I've found that aren't part of a cluster; Brizlee Wood near Alnwick and Claxby in Lincs don't look like contenders, so it could be a water tower that's teleported in from Kansas?

I believe that's what it is. However if I put up a close up photo of it, google image search would solve it in seconds.

You believe what is what it is? A radome or a teleported Kansan water tower?

A radar dome thingy, definitely not a water tower from Kansas, Kansan or North Korea.

ah I can give you an aerial view of it without it being google map search sensitive.

Its not marked on google maps, but visible on an aerial view, but a various levels of magnification there is some evidence of it on OS.

I can't be the only one who has found the not-water tower and has wasted considerable time searching the vicinity.
Must be so close, but have got to get back to work now. Damn!

That's broadly, vaguely, the rough area where I would have started looking if I had the energy. Just on the basis of geology and the fact I didn't think it was the N or S Downs.

well done @lazybloke

i think its a NATS (national air traffic services) radar.

Cheers! I looked at met office radar sites first. NATS was my 2nd thought.

Will find something to post later.

Here you go. Shouldn't take long.

Name that road!

Not a single guess, observation or comment in 48 hours. All just busy, or is it time for a clue?

Well, I would like to know... is that grey patch over to the right, the roof of a building, or a glimpse of a river?

It's a reflection, but not off river or water.

I'm no geologist, so this might be rubbish but ... the high ground to the top right reminds me of the North Downs which are sometimes quarried leaving exposed chalk cliffs. So another one in a chalky area?
