Since looking at a couple of the others that have been found, I'm more inclined to think Scotland.  Mike and a couple of other people are extremely familiar with the Lake District, so I would have thought that perhaps it would have been recognised by them by now if it was indeed the LD. Of course, I am only assuming and you know what that does don't you…..  :P :P :P

The trouble is that there are so many little stone bridges like this. I see more and more every time I go out for  a drive or a walk, all of them very similar in design. It could well be here in the Lakes (or in Scotland, or the Yorkshire Dales) and I might have seen it many times, but I can't quite make it fit any of the ones I have seen.

You see…you should never assume!   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

In case anyone is convinced it's in Scotland and has the time for a lengthy trawl, here's a site dedicated to Highland Bridges:

About 4th pic down is an oil painting of Brig O Turk bridge. Its the background that makes me think Cazza is very very close.

Does this help?

Looks it to me, but would love a 2nd, 3rd or however many opinions….
