It looks like Porto, but probably  isn't!
It is simpler than it looks.

I took the picture from Porto. What is the name of the town on the other side though?

There's a road like that somewhere around Market Drayton or Telford. But it is right in the country and wouldn't have a lamppost, I think.

Nobody's very close so far.
You can just make out the roofs of a town through the trees, and I think the light may be still set up for gas.

Don't know where you stayed but at first glance I thought it was a wooden viaduct..

Closest so far.
I might ride out to check if the light is gas tonight if the weather is OK.
