The Water Tower baggers thread

[winjim]

I'm not on my bike but from where I am right now I can see a water tower

And a wind farm

Admittedly they're both a bit far away...

Came across this one outside of Farnborough (Berkshire)

I’ve not seen that - I’m not far from Farnborough and ride through every now and then.

Have a good idea which junction the photos were taken from, but would never have thought there was a wind farm visible from there. The only one I can think of in that direction is Penny Hill?

It is. We can basically see across the entire city from up here. If I go a bit further up the hill I think I can also see some turbines a bit further to the north, but I haven't oriented myself properly to work out where they are.

Apparently from up here you can see as far as the Humber bridge in one direction and Lincoln cathedral in another.

Edit: Lincoln cathedral, photo taken by someone on the local Facebook group.

Wow! Just, wow!
Impressive optics on that camera.
I'm about 10 miles closer to the Cathedral on a direct line with it, but even when up some of the local high points, have never spotted it.

It's a bit out of the way, and not strictly by bridleway...

I have ridden right past that! Admittedly it was probably at night so there's my excuse for not seeing it. It can't be far off the bridleway.

It is very close to Furze Lane, but the trees screen it quite. We'd come along the footpath instead so was rather clear :-)

Just wandered in to this thread.
Round the edges of Glasgow there's quite a few.
