Game: Name that road!

There's a 'thing' on the right hand edge, though I can't make out what it is

Sorry I forgot this was in play ....

Yes that is the crucial thing, you should recognise it. Do you ever drive?

It looks like a motorway gantry to me, from the back.

So with that knowledge and one other previous clue it shouldn't be hard to find.

I looked at what I thought were all the likely sites a week ago...

I wonder if that clue is in the reply above, to me? The wording seems a bit odd, but if there is much of a hint there then I have yet to find it.

Maybe crucial indicates 'cross'? I'm still none the wiser.

I think the "previous clue" was that he mentioned he had taken the picture last weekend. So that narrows down the location a bit if you know where he was last weekend.

Looks like Motorway underpass. Reminds me of some of those I’ve ridden under the M1. Though other motorways will have similar.

I’ll make a first guess at it being Hogg End Lane.

Well done - the Mar 2009 picture clearly shows the big tree, and a look over the hedge shows the motorway gantries.

Here you go, name this road

 

[Ming the Merciless]

I’ll give you a clue, within riding distance of the last NTR.

But how do you define "within riding distance"?

 

[Ming the Merciless]

But how do you define "within riding distance"?

By riding between them in a single day.

 

[ColinJ]

That leads to an obvious further question...








... What is your favourite colour?

 

[T4tomo]

its a heck of a wall or building structure in the mid distance behind the bridge, i suspect better focussing no that than Mings average coloured day mileage.
