I suspect that Kate will just say - 'pass'
She is not the sort of lady who relishes scrambling through undergrowth

Haha Margaret ... was just going to say summat similar (stilettoes are prohibitive) ... or poking over other people's backyards.

Think there are a few clues here ... will be back.

Was thinking (yes, I do occasionally Retlaw), perhaps you could do this as a sort of regular spot, but one puzzle with 2/3 weeks in between. It is obvious that we are loving this .. but gets exhausting one at the back of the other ..

I don't think she will give up that easy, she does'nt need to scramble thro undergrowth, I did'nt, just took the picture thro a window.

Exhausting be blowed, whats difficult about it, all you have to do is look at the picture and think where could that be, its still there as far as I know, but likely to be even more delapidated.
I've got loads more pictures.

Kate has a busy life (by comparison to me anyway)
It must feel like being on a treasure hunt game every day of the week

No its where you used to live.

Most of my pictures are from the Easterly side of the Town hall, and South of Avenue Parade.
So its up a bit left a bit, from just round back of beyond going sideways.
Margret could always goggle it.
Goggle earth won't work on my computer.

It looks like an old photo taken in what is now the beer at the Regency.

Peeping threw a window.

Maybe in a building on BBurn Road, or where disc & tape used to be?

By Abbey street I meant the area between the Black Horse (I think that the pubs name) and the Tanning salon (Next to where disc & Tape used to be).

I think it maybe the view out of a back window on Bank St or the top part of Warner St - both look out over the same signs of dilapidation.
