Game: Name that road!

Might be parkland associated with a hall or similar

Yeah, looks like the bridge is over a water feature of some sort too.

 

[Dogtrousers]

Nice coloured stone. Cotswoldy?

Ming said it was within a day's ride of the last offering, which was in Hertfordshire.
Now, I reckon Ming could ride a long way in a day, but using 100 miles as a benchmark I come up with this area

So yes, a large area, although correspondingly less if you choose a smaller circle. And we can rule Greater London out.

My hunch is that we're looking at the counties north of London, but I have no other ideas at the moment.

Given that circle I reckon somewhere south of Brighton

I can confirm it lies within that circle. One of you should crack it quickly now it’s narrowed down.

@Dogtrousers might be on to something

*BUMP* I'm going out on my bike now, but will take another look for this road when I get back...

Big clue, where else do you see Cotswoldy stone?

 

[Tribansman]

Given the 23 day hiatus, I'm officially classing this current road a Minger

So "not the Cotswolds"

 

[lazybloke]

Somewhere near Bath possibly.
Bath stone came from the Box mines...

Haven't got time to go looking....

Correct

 

[robjh]

Correct

There are some areas of similar looking stone around Northamptonshire, maybe into Rutland.
