Thanks for that Hugo, you can tell how big it is by the size of the parking space below !

Where in North Wales will you find this?

No guesses?
Here is a picture clue which is also in the same area.

I haven't a clue about this one, thought that it might be the old Railway Station in Denbigh but it looks like the shadow of a large Fir tree in the 2nd photo so I've ruled that out.
I'll have a wild guess at Gwrych Castle Abergele instead.

No, think more industrial.
It is a place where you have been Hugo as well as Gwynant, Jack and DaveR.

Another pop at this one but I'm not very confident and must remember to pay more attention when I go on a walk.

Is it the brickworks at Porth Wen on the walk from Bull Bay to Cemaes Bay in Anglesey?

Thought the 'fir tree' was the photographer !

Well done Hugo. You are correct. I did the walk yesterday from Bull Bay to Porth Wen and back yesterday. I will put some photos on the walking thread.

It's a lovely walk Hollins and I hope that you enjoyed it.  The first time I ever did that walk from Bull Bay, we saw two pods of Dolphins immediatly and then saw a Raven nesting on the cliff edge.
If you got as far as Llanbadrig there is a vineyard there and we were given free samples of the wine to try, the Draig Goch was a red wine and very nice it was too.    ZXZ

I turned around and came back at the brickworks Hugo but I will remember the vineyard for another time, thanks.

It's only easy if you know it, but this should be easy for some.     Where is this?         $walesflag$

On top of a viaduct is it?  A disused railway line maybe?

Could it be the viaduct near Glasinfryn on the old Bangor - Bethesda branch line ?
