Game: Name that road!

'We had a chat about pronunciation of the placename "Slaugham" '

Every Fridays ride that goes that way has one of them!

OK.. i cant promise to check avidly if this makes it to the BH weekend, but as it from street view it will be obvious if solved or not.

I rode past this yesterday, which is a very good clue.

'tis Craster, source of excellent kippers.

I've also cycled that road, thought it might be the sea, but had thought Scotland from the buildings.

The clue was more than a little helpful!

Indeed correct and yes it wasn't obviously the sea in the background. over to you, Melrose awaits for us!

I've not been further than Berwick up that coast, so have no idea of your adventures next, enjoy!

OK, so name either road!

Looks like Dartmoor. I've just done a quick check and could easily win "name a road that looks quite a bit like this, but isn't it".

So it probably isn't Dartmoor

No bites at all. Probably time for a clue...

There are Vikings behind and Romans in front.

York didn't look like that the last time I visited it!

OK, another clue: The Henge is due East of here, just a few miles away.

Moss Bar, to the left.

River Dane behind, Roman road ahead. I didn't get the Henge clue though.

Well done! You may have noticed our tandem in the pic.

The henge?

A magical place, even with the stones fallen. Highly recommended lunch spot for a hungry cyclist.

I really must get down to the Peak District with my bike from time to time!

Being very unobservant, I had NOT noticed the tandem... I was looking at the shape of the terrain and working out what direction the roads were probably headed.

Here is another on from me... (As usual, apologies if I have posted this view before - no doubt I WILL one day, if not this time!)

Name That Road!

 

[ColinJ]

There is a very big clue in the picture which should make this road easy to find.
