There's an 'A' road at the bottom of this hill.  Nice pub about 100 mtrs away.

Thank you Stewie.  Great photo.


It's been a number of years since I went there last.  I thought it was the Sissinghurst summerhouse as when we were there, an artist was painting a highly detailed picture of it.


Next one ...  Where is this lane and what is it's name?

That'll do. It's the pump-house at the very much active Southern Water water works at Luton. It used to be hidden behind admin and office buildings on the site. Those buildings became surplus to Southern Water, so they and the land they stood on was sold for development and the pump house is now hidden behind a new housing development.


Over to you....
