Game: Name that road!

[GuyBoden]

Its a cracking view off a ridge line.

it might be my screen, but is that some sort of mast or tower on the horizon?

Yes, it looks like the Bilsdale transmitter.

I'm wrong.

 

[ColinJ]

I felt that it was more likely to be W Yorkshire than N Yorkshire, and I had spotted the mast.

Narrow road on a ridge, footpath crossing it. Given the light in the sky, looking E to SE?

Yes its a mast symbol on the OS map.

Good call Colin.

I had it tagged around Bradwell or Buxton in Peak but can’t find a match round those parts.

I'm busy sulking because my NYM guess was wrong

 

[GuyBoden]

I'm moved to Tapton Hill transmitter.

 

[ColinJ]

There are a lot of them!

That ridge should be easy to spot on an OS map if looking in the right place, especially with the footpath crossing the road, and a transmitter mast at the end somewhere...

Yes, here's a website that lists every mast in the country in Alphabetical order:

Edit: But, there's a Google Map link to every mast.

I don't know what the name of the mast is, but it's a good bet it's on that list.

I don't know what the name of the mast is, but it's a good bet it's on that list.

The mast is called what I thought it might be, I can't see it on that list, it's a communications mast, not TV or radio, so odds are it's not on that list.

 

[Venod]

A couple of clues in my answers to Guys list suggestion.

This is the map I used to find Colin's mast on the hills above Shaw...

That's a great map website, I didn't know there were so many transmitter masts in the country.

Are we saying that the mast is in Yorkshire?

I wonder if it's on this map.
