Closer to Newcastle.

Eeh, I don't know. It's not the Wear at Durham, is it? I'm gathering it's somewhere on the Wall.

On the wall is correct, getting the Roman link between High Street and Hadrian's wall.

Exeter?

Ian H · « **Reply #5857 on:** 10 August, 2014, 09:28:27 am »

No. Bigger city than Exeter. Landmark on a major route in.

That is a very long way from the Sussex border.

Ah, but the story largely takes place near the picture!

Nighttime photos of cities from the international space station that someone in Spain wants identifying. The initial guess for this one was London, but that's patently wrong. Shift-click and drag to rotate the photo.

Dunno but intrigued.

Steph · « **Reply #5868 on:** 23 October, 2014, 07:47:33 am »

Aylesford?

Jaded · « **Reply #5869 on:** 23 October, 2014, 10:21:24 am »

No, not Aylesford. Funnily I thought you might get it Steph, as you are often good at ones like this.

Steph · « **Reply #5870 on:** 23 October, 2014, 08:42:17 pm »

Hmmmm. Intrigued now.

Deano · « **Reply #5871 on:** 23 October, 2014, 09:03:36 pm »

Some sort of war memorial? Dunno where, though.

That was my thought. The trees' leaves suggest something like a frangipani, so my first thought was somewhere like Changi.

Chittagong war grave?
