I've never known it show the country name like that - is it maybe right at the border?

I was thinking the two legged sign could be a 'welcome to' county sign... or maybe a 'highest point' sign.
It's high up wherever it is.

Sign on right is right size for a welcome to England 🏴 one. There’s a similar sized sign on left in the distance.

OK, I'm tied up most of tomorrow, so a couple of pointers:
I've no idea why Google captioned it "England". I can confirm the entire view as seen is in England, but also that from that spot it is possible to see one other country.

OK, no takers at all, I'll drip in a clue a day maybe.
The other country visible from the spot is Wales.

You can see Wales from the Peak District on a clear day.

I didn't think it would quite be possible but I hadn't stopped to work it out.
I did calculations once to work out how far one could see from a certain elevation, or how high a mountain peak one could see from sea level if nothing was in the way, but I have lost them. I will do the calculations again when I get back from the shops.
