Game: Name that road!

[shnjmsn]

OMG I thought I had that immediately - Coverack near the southern tip of the Lizard, which is about as far South as it's possible to go!
However, a quick look at Streetview proves me wrong. Damn.

Love it there, but nope !

'very south' could be relative to many things, so without a major study of maps i'm lost.
Anyway, i have some poultry to roast.

Very south!

Gorey pier, Jersey?

Spot on !!!!!!

It is a pretty distinctice view if you've seen it before, and it's a beautiful spot.

Right, here's the next one...

This looks to me like the start of a railway viaduct. Unusually, not made of brick, but possibly Sandstone

No much to go on there...

Looks like a railway bridge, blurry feature on the bridge. Could it be a cycle path, perhaps?

Looks like a flat topped moor in the distance.

Total guess: top end of the Welsh valleys, perhaps? A quick look at former railways now cycleways doesn't reveal any candidates to me.

I shall await clues

According to this there are 91 stone arch railway bridges/viaducts in the UK. That should narrow it down

I'm surprised that there are only 91 - I would have guessed many hundreds, or even thousands!

Hmmm.... TBF that probably does narrow it down to about a couple of dozen or so at most. Of course, if I took the time to check them it'll turn out to be a sodding aqueduct...

This may help railway bridge numbers and locations

Thinking Wales somewhere...............

 

[Trickedem]

I think this may well be in or near a town. Because there is a footway beside the road. The bridge is also higher than it looks because there is not height restrictions

It's a (semi-rural) village in Scotland.

There's a lot of old railway viaducts in former coal mining areas. Ayrshire? Lanarkshire?

Actually there are only 91 explicitly described as having a type of "stone arch". Closer investigation shows there are tons of them with no type description at all.

What's the crinkly grey thing above the left-hand arch?
