Not quite in the league of Herbie quizzes, but whilst waiting for a very slow volunteer to ring up my purchases in Oxfam, I idly glanced around and alighted on this. Unfortunately it was behind a pile of sofas so the angle from which I could photograph it was rather constrained, hence the reflections.
I am terrible at identifying locations, but it looks vaguely familiar even to me. I'm not saying where I think it is though as I may be wildly and embarassingly wrong. I will write it on a slip of paper and put it in a sealed envelope, and reveal my guess only if the Herbies (for it is bound to be they) confirm it. Please feel free to tell me though if you get in before Kath and Neil.
Only four days in and a waterways-related post. I'm as surprised as you are.
Skipton?
ReplyDeleteWe had a great time there a few weeks back watching the Tour de France come through.
And then we took 'RW' down to Silsden for the second stage.

NB 'Red Wharf'
Oooops.
ReplyDelete'Weeks'should be years.
Oh, that certainly wasn't what I was thinking, because I've never been to Skipton. I'm assuming the church (which I kind of ignored) is quite a big clue ...
ReplyDeleteYes, that's definitely Skipton, Standing on the towpath looking into the Springs Branch at the junction. http://www.penninewaterways.co.uk/ll/ll9.htm
ReplyDeleteAnd I've rung a peal of Yorkshire Surprise Major on the lovely bells at that church.
Agreed, definitely Skipton
ReplyDeleteDo you think I should buy it then?
