Jennifer, I think the main problem is that there are little stone bridges like that in various areas of the country. It is just a case of finding the right style of bridge with that big hill in the background.
It is not an easy task. ::)

Hi Folks

Wow, this one is certainly causing a few headaches!  Sorry I haven't been around for the weekend, otherwise I would have posted some more to tear you away from this one and save your sanity!!  ;D ;D

I don't know what I'm talking about here, just enjoying watching the hunts on these photos, but if you consider that the photo may have been taken from the other side of the bridge, there may be no hills in the background!  Just a thought that might or might not be helpful!

Keep up the great hunting! Most entertaining!  :) :)

On much closer inspection I'm not sure that is another arch on the right.  Could just be a tree.  But the bridge walkway does seem to extend to the right.

Also could that white blob on the right, a bit higher up, be a house?
Is it the Thomas Telford Bridge at Invermoriston. It is a double arch but some of the views look to be of a single span.

And if we look at the left mug ( yes I apologise) on this pic it seems to be of a similar angle

Very close, dg, but I think the R Moriston is flowing in a deeper, rockier, gorge and it's a slightly taller bridge.

This is taken from the double arch bridge and the incline of the bridge is to the right. Ours is to the left ... so we would see the other bridge through it.

I too had considered this one...but...there are so many bridges that are like this one but very few of them match the hillside backdrop.

It's probably behind the thatched cottage, which is down the road from the quirky chapel next door to the house with the tower and a stones throw from the georgian house that replaced the mock tudor house.   :P :P :P :P
