Game: Name that road!

[roubaixtuesday]

was aware my last one was causing some annoyance

Not at all, only annoyed at my own ineptitude!

My inability to see the second pylon crossing reminded me of the famous basketball video...

That looks so familiar and what’s on the sign on left, a tea pot. Is the big building an old Methodist chapel or a school?

Can't see a teapot anywhere, I would say its a church, denomination unknown to me.

it's Braygate Lane in Levisham.

here it is looking toward the pub

I had a cryptic clue lined up.

Blue jeans and meat join the village.

it's Braygate Lane in Levisham.

Correct, your turn.

Beyond the pub the road goes down to Levisham Station which is on The North Yorks Moors Railway, go over the railway for some fine tracks in Cropton Forest, not on a road bike, but a CX/Adventure bike would be OK and of course a MTB would be fine.

Has anybody taken a bike on the NYM railway,(is it even allowed) there are some fine roads on the moors.

This road I used to ride every morning to work...

Little Fell La Blea Tarn Rd by Langthwaite Resr?

it's actually Proctor Moss Road, but you have it... I knew i should've posted a photo a little further from home
Are you local to the area? ...or did you just search around Lancaster??
Over to you

 

[Dogtrousers]

This is one of my own photos. Don't bother zooming in on the signpost - it's not legible I have lots of clues ready if needed.

I just searched around Lancaster. Looking for pylons.

note to self... pylons make it too easy!

I did have a much easier commute to that particular job, but it was straight down the A6 and the traffic did my nut in... so a few extra hills and an extra mile was a worthy detour, even in the pouring rain and middle of winter

Dagnabbit, having thought it was Hutton le Hole I searched the area for a village with a N-S road through it but missed that one.

Looks idyllic, deserves to be better known.

Very well done, respect!

This is the better known view of the Village

I had a hunch that the style of old signposts were different in each county... so after a bit of looking at old roadsigns, I ended up looking around Sussex, then for old signposts in Sussex on Alamy and found one very similar to @Dogtrousers picture, which put me 1 mile from Newbridge and a couple of miles from Hartfield and Duddleswell...

It's Kid's Hill.

is this you on a ride Dogtrousers?

It is indeed Kidd's Hill. I like the fact that on Streetview there's a very knackered looking cyclist at the side of the road.

I didn't need any of my Winnie the Pooh clues

LOL... sometimes you've gotta get in there quick on this thread; post the answer, then sort out the screen shot .

OK... no pylons this time.

Hopefully this'll take a bit longer than 10 minutes.
