Near a car park between Aldeburgh and Thorpeness.*

Martin · #**317** 28-06-12

Yes. Well done Kurt- All yours now

Thanks Martin,

When I lived in East Anglia I often visited that coastline.

Here is the next image. I will be interested to find if clues are needed!

Clue 1: The viewpoint is from an iconic ruin.

Martin · #**320** 29-06-12

Hi Kurt
It's the Swanage railway at Corfe . I have a similar set of images but without the two cars (red & observation

).

Spot-on, Martin. I was hoping to make reference to Enid Blyton's famous five and picnics with ginger beer! Back to you.

Now that does take me back.
It has been quite reminiscent just looking back to 2005 when we were at Corfe

.By the way you did well to capture both the train & the car together.
I'll sort another challenge

later.

Ok. Here is the next one.

This reminds me of the Caen locks just outside Devizes - but I could, of course, be wrong!

Martin · #**325** 01-07-12

Sorry Caz its not Caen locks. These are further north.

I think it's Bingley 5-rise on the Liverpool and Leeds Canal. If I'm right, this flight is unusual in that there are no pounds between the locks - i.e. the bottom gate of one lock is the top gate of the next.

Hi Andrew,
Yes, you are perfectly correct. Never realised there was anything unique about the mechanism before, which rises 60ft from bottom to top.
Back to you then.

Martin

Very well, here's the next one. It is in England (fairly obviously!). I still haven't mastered the art of inserting a full sized photo!

In the interest of moving this thread on before I go away next week, here's a clue. It's in a county noted for fine perp style towers and this is one of the stars.

I've got another clue in mind for use in a few days' time, but please, someone, don't make me use it!
