Guess the Google Location (UK)

Post by atomicdanny »

Since Streetmap covers the whole of the UK, I'd thought that I would try this

Area includes - England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Isle of Wight, and Isle of Man

(All pictures must be from Google Streetview)

Rules (Picture can be)

1) Any National Rail railway station / Northern Ireland railway station
2) Any Tram Station (Metrolink / Sheffield Supertram / Croydon Tramlink, etc)
3) Underground Station or DLR can be included but only if they are connected to a Mainline station or are above ground
4) Any bus station in the area above
5) Any landmark
6) Any town or city as long as it has something unique (i.e. not your house or something that every town has e.g. whsmith) (an example of this would be the main high street or an important road)
7) Any heritage line

Pictures can't be -

1) A railway station that has closed years ago and has nothing left to identify it with (Closed stations are fine, as long as there is something still there)
2) An "underground" underground / DLR station
3) A picture of your house, or a part of a village / town / city that won't be recognised (e.g. residential housing, industrial estates, it has to be more unique)

First picture - (an easy one)

Clue 1 - Its a railway station

I can't give you that answer even though you are partially correct mainly because there are two stations in Portsmouth with the name Portsmouth... so you have a 50/50 chance ;)

There are two, but you are correct, it is Menai Bridge.
