Using the following clues (the map above is purely decorative) in combination with Street View, work out my location.
Although Roman, THC’s chief puzzlewright, would be interested to know how long it takes you to solve this solo foxer, he’d rather you didn’t put spoilers or solutions in the comments.
Today I’m closer to a railway than a church, in a hamlet that experienced tragedy in early 2021. On a ‘D’ road with a three digit number (all of the digits are even, none of them are eight, and added together they equal fourteen) I’m within a UNESCO Global Geopark notable for its ****p**** mines. The park is in a country that has a fasces on its national coat of arms, and a painting of a nude medieval monarch on its Wikipedia page. The nearest coastline is over 100 miles away. The nearest capital city lies to the south, is roughly 135 miles distant, and has a population of around 22,000 people. The river I’m a stone’s throw from, has a three letter name that makes Roman think of the Book of Genesis, and, in this spot at least, flows in a southwesterly direction. I’d need to cross the river in order to reach the nearest campsite.
You are probably in the right place if you can see…
- Spring sunshine
- Spring flowers
- Pine cones
- A ‘risk of falling rocks’ road sign
- Three millstones
- Wagon wheels
- Cliffs
- Traffic calming measures
- No people or cars
(Last week I was here)
Pine cones in view. Thanks Roman, definitely got the grey matter working this morning.
Millstones ahoy! Took me around 30 minutes. Beautiful spot, really enjoy this type of scenic foxer
The Eagle Has Landed! Nice one.
