It has to be somewhere on Blackburn Rd. Top of Oxford St, there's been a few fires there.

Where abouts on Asda's carpark could you see anything like that. Viaducts in the way.

Re: New Picture Puzzle for Kaytex
The only other place I can think is either bottom of bull bridge, or the other way the railway station. Although it seems the wrong angle for that.

Re: New Picture Puzzle for Kaytex
There's that car park under the viaduct,that looks about the right angle. Where King St Club is, or was.

Re: New Picture Puzzle for Kaytex
I'm sure thats the drapers on Church Street, so another guess is you took the pic from the top of the arcade.

Me too Bernie .. just can't understand his comment that the Town Hall is not in the shot. Those windows are very distinctive.
Had a little tour around tonight, and cannot find another building with two of those pointy thingys. The round window on the white building is throwing me a bit .. but perhaps this is a bit of an elusion, and not actually next to the other buildings at ground level ... on a roof ?
Ok ... I'll move up a bit ... on The Bridge Pub. There again ...could even be further away if his camera were on zoom.

Clever clogs, it is the gable end of the shop on Church St, I took it from 60 ft up, on the hydraulic platform.
Yes it is a bit of the town hall in the background.
I said it was'nt, was waiting for you to respond.
Would'nt be able to get that angle from top of the arcade.
Do you want another picture.
Retlaw.

You cheeky so and so .... didn't go down Church Street last night due to your comment re. Town Hall... turned left bottom of Church Street.
Yes, think our members enjoyed that Retlaw ... as they would have enjoyed Atarahs if you hadn't been such a spoilsport ...
We will just have to ignore any clues you give us, as now know will be on a false trail .... Going for me swim ... to refresh me endorphins for the next task.
