The nature of the game is the person who correctly identifies the previous road, gets to post their road, rather than a free for all... so Aravis' road in post #658 needs to be correctly identified first before the next picture is posted.

The first rule of Name That Road Club is that the person who identified the previous road gets to post the next one.

Nice road though... Save it for the right moment!

Curses - @MontyVeda's turbo-typing beats me again!

To help folks towards the right area, someone passing the spot I was at might well be travelling to or from the highest road pass in South Wales (I think that's true) - but I wasn't on that occasion.

Sorry

The third rule of Name That Road Club is ... don't worry about it, and remember to repost your lovely road picture at the earliest legitimate opportunity!

I've spent a pleasant hour looking at the OS maps for South Wales. Could be the next tour!

@MontyVeda's recent offering had the same effect on me with Cumbria!

That is what I like about this game. It wouldn't be much fun if somebody guessed the road each time in a couple of minutes.

...or discovered the locations with a quick fluky google

Would that be the Gospel Pass?

Would that be the Gospel Pass?

I assumed it was Gospel Pass, but could find anywhere that looked like this.

Would that be the Gospel Pass?

Indeed it is. So basically, from the information given, the picture is of somewhere in the Black Mountains.

Yup, I've searched extensively between there and Gloucester but found nothing... It's a good job i like glaring at maps.

Go the other way a little bit.

On this ride I didn't go over it.

It is a bit like The Golden Shot - left a bit; stop; right a bit; stop; up a bit; I said UP!!!; down a bit; stop; FIRE!!!!
