Pic taken from a video he sent so not great quality.

Anyway, not much to go on but knowing STW... where do you think (In England) he proposed today?

For clarity, I know where he popped the question, but can you work it out from this pretty standard stream pic?

I bet someone does!

(She said yes btw!)

I mentioned it but it turned out to be a hard sell. 😁

If no one gets it by midnight I'll give a small clue.

I'd have been petrified of dropping the ring down the slates of the bridge and into the water.

Also congrats

Congrats to the family! I’m guessing but it looks like a bridge. A wooden one. Over a stream.

Now the image is loading, it looks like a bridge crossing a wee burn (not wee in the pic) just south of Hallglen in Falkirk...I suspect it isn't, but it looks very similar to it.

Hardcastle Crags riverside path?

It looks more like a hostage situation than a proposal, is he begging for his life?

I took the screen grab just before she turned around and saw him. My lad timed it just right as his lilun' had just been picked up by his mum, blocking the view of him kneeling. 😁

Looks like the River Teign upstream of Fingle Bridge on Dartmoor, but that looks like a lot of places so could be anywhere...

Region being Dartmoor? That's what I thought - somewhere Lustleigh-ish.

The hint as promised:

This crab doesn't need a VW camper and would have been most at home here.

I wrote a massive list of places around England where hermit caves etc were located… one quite close to a VW dealership. Then accidentally refreshed the browser.

Congratulations to everyone and good wishes for a happy life.

I do have a question, though. Why are you asking people to guess where your son proposed?

Is the answer a forum in-joke?

Justa bit of a laugh really. I guarantee that someone on here has been to this place. Whether they click on the thread or recognise the place by the pic/ hints, is another matter! 😁
