Bishopthorpe?

[frankly frankie]

Yup, hole in one.

[Hot Flatus]

Just down t'road from acaster malbis, where I was spawned.

[andrew_s]

Which castle?

[David Martin]

Which castle?

Corfe Castle.

I have been there many years ago  but couldn't quite remember the name.

[andrew_s]

Obviously too easy, though I was expecting someone a bit more local to get it.

Have another easy one

Muckle Flugga, off the north of Unst in Shetland?

I was thinking the rocks at the end of the Gower, whatever they're called.

[andrew_s]

Muckle Flugga it is

Worms head, and it doesn't have a lighthouse.

That's the one. Is my memory playing me false in remembering a building at the end?

[Ian H]

Here's one. Doesn't have to be too precise (because I can't recall exactly where we were).

Corsica, somewhere near the Col de Bavella ?

Northern part of the GR20, somewhere, I think, before the Cirque de Solitude. I don't think we dipped below 3000m more than once on the entire walk.

Either that or mine is doing the same but vice versa.

Where's this distinctive hedge? It should be familiar to quite a few people hereabouts.

[andyoxon]

Painswick?

[Ian H]

There's one very much like it in Beaminster...but I'm not sure that's the one.

[Salvatore]

Neither Painswick nor Beaminster.

I think I may have cycled past it without noticing it in late May this year.  Is it in an alliterative village?  Am I on the right track?  And if so, enough clues?

Yes to all those. And there were plenty of others riding past it on May 18th.

[Ian H]

Yes to all those. And there were plenty of others riding past it on May 18th.

Including me?

Possibly. Depends which route you took.

In searching the archives I saw that someone mentioned the hedge.

[andrew_s]

Muckle Flugga it is

no takers for where the ferryman is then?
