Game: Name that road!

[Aravis]

It's strange how this goes sometimes.

The date and time of the image is 28/11/2014, 11:13am. That confirms that we're looking west, as noted above. The river is indeed on the right, and there is one pylon visible.

I think its somewhere round here, the minor road through Priding,

Ah, *those* pylons.

 

[Aravis]

You have it @Venod. My image might be a few yards further back, and it looks as though the bush on the right hand side of the road had been trimmed pretty heavily by 2014.

Over to you...

I scooted down there but dismissed it... but i think you're right. The windsock in Aravis' photo is behind the tree beyond the steps.

Glad I was right, I was beginning to get annoyed.

If i was you I'd be well annoyed... your post #921 send me directly to the right road, but i dismissed it.

I looked there yesterday, but dismissed it, but I couldn't find any alternatives so had another look after reading all the comments.

OK a nice easy one if you have cycled this way it will be remembered if you haven't there are plenty of clues.

Looks like Hutton le Hole, but a glance at Steetview suggests otherwise.

North Yorkshire almost certainly, architecture suggests Moors rather than Dales.

It can create a different sort of problem when it's one of our own pictures rather than a Streetview capture. I remember one of @ColinJ's which was a minor road near Oban. I didn't know it at all, so I found a possible road on O/S based on orientation, terrain, etc. The moment I looked at Streetview the light and season obviously matched, and as I moved along the cows soon moved into position. I'd've had no chance if it had been his own picture.

I was aware my last one was causing some annoyance, and I couldn't help feeling responsible, but there's nothing wrong with my picture which accurately shows how it looked on the day. It could be a rapidly changing view; whether or not it really is, the folks in the big houses on the left treat the strip between the road and the river as part of their gardens and keep it tidy.

if I'd taken shorter 'steps' down that road, i would have got it... but no... i whizzed along it and missed the windsock.

is that a post for a May Pole in the middle of the seated area?

That got me with your Gospel Path one, I thought it was a view from somewhere up from where you took the picture, I was initialy fooled by the lack of roads up there and was very surprised when I found out Google had gone down Offas Dyke Path.

I can confirm its North Yorkshire.

There is a post in the middle of the seated area, I think its for a flag pole.
