No, that's jack's rake in the background on Pavey ark, so maybe somewhere nr slate mines at chapel Stile (again????) or certainly further down the valley nr chapel stile.

click on satellite view, I think [u]maybe[/u] looking across this field from the wall on the right, just on the edge of chapel stile. as well as the slag heap you can also see shadow of at least one telegraph pole.

otherwise, somewhere in that vicinity

Work out separately from B.A.Nana but the same answer, I think it's from the field you can see [url= https://www.google.co.uk/maps/ @54.4394639,-3.0539213,3a,37.2y,238.87h,79.4t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sL-kH7ZrF00Or2v55XCMp2w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656]here[/url]

pah! hes upped the ante again. says location should be too easy so he wants the room number again!

No bunkhouse is down to the left of the pic on the campsite (probably not even in that pic). That's maybe more B&B accomm or staff accomm.

Edit yeah bunkhouse is way out of pic down a hill

That's the bunkhouse at Sykeside Campsite / Brotherswater Inn 😀

This is the Building from the other side (shop, shower block, drying room), your mate's van would be parked behind

Had my suspicions I was wrong. Ironically I was scanning some old of my old slides a while back and I've got an almost identical photo, couldn't remember where I took it.

If I was in his shoes, I wouldn't have wanted to go through the same scenario again.

he did actually apologise that it was missing in this photo 🙂

i must be getting better at working out which ones are going to be tough to locate. soon as i saw this one i though you lads/lasses will get it pretty quick.

the first one coud be anywhere but I reckon between Ambleside and Skelwith FOld
the second one is the Bronwen Nixon footbridge over the Rothay at Ambleside
third one is at Skelwith Fold
