I have driven past this pub a few times, just took a while to remember where - helped by Mr Google, of course.
The next is a well known, but older, view of a High Street still recognisable today. Could be easy.

As ever - where?

Well done Diapason,one of our local sites. Over to you.
I`m amazed at guessing that one, it really was a `shot in the dark` as I had never seen the gates as they are today.

I may have used the following photo on the former forum.

Where is this memorial that is not in a churchyard but not far away from one?

Just to clear up any confusion my photo was taken to the right of the Street view image. Just goes to show you cant always get your answers from street view. :)
The Gates are to the right of the Churchyard at the end of Green Porch Close. The mounting block (which has been on GTP before) for the gentry attending church on their horses is to the left along the wall.
There was some dissent among local residents due to the Park Runners leaving there cars everywhere everywhere before Covid stop all gatherings.

No problem with Diapason taking up the baton, just shows that GSV is getting a tad out of date in the less traveled areas. Our house is shown with a young spindly walnut tree in the garden. It’s now as tall as the house. The wasteland to the side has been a productive veg patch for many years, so only too aware of its limitations.


Keep calm and carry on  :)

We need Grandarog to confirm it.  The GSV you're showing is from 2009, a decade ago.  The building works have been completed long since.  I was there last summer and the GSV is definitely out of date.  I remember the level path shown on G's view with the ramp descending towards Green Porch Close.  Holy Trinity is immediately behind the camera.

Very curious, I get plain gates and a work in progress behind them.


Me too!   ;D
