It would be harder if you changed the properties tag

PoolieBarnes · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2009 2:53 pm

Yeah I know, but I don't know how to do that!

PoolieBarnes · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2009 3:18 pm

Still don't know how to do it but found a picture that didn't actually say where or what it was in the title/properties. :grin:

PoolieBarnes · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2009 3:26 pm

It is.
Did you know that or did you right click on the properties earlier?
I suppose you'll just google it now to tell me where it is. . . :laugh:

SCARBOROUGH ?

Montpoolier · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:51 pm

Those ruins are so impressive I can't imagine them not being world famous.

And yet...

Some unidentified place nearer to "home" than the centre of Paris, hmmm....

Thinking about it, it's probably not all that much closer to home. Still a fair drive.

Clue 1: north

Clue 2: the structure was reduced to its present state a little over 260 years ago.

A guess based on the approximate year little over 260 years ago year and seen as it's ruins, Culloden?

Hebden bridge :coool:

Montpoolier · **Posted:** Sat Feb 21, 2009 10:51 am

I actually know it's the Atlantic Bridge 'cuz ah bin across it. :wink:

It's up near Oban and leads across the Atlantic to a small island.

Here's an bigass, very old obelisk where you wouldn't immediately expect to see one:

It would be exaggerating to say it's near home - or even a downright lie!

is it in york that?
