bridge is kinda whack - the whole thing, tram wires and all, rises up to let boats through. odd little jigsaw piece tag on the opposite side.

I'm guessing it's linked to that Comics Crepes shop on the corner, since there's a comic image on it

nice one! any clues in the picture or did you know it?

it looked like a long bridge in south america, so i found a list of longest bridges in south america. this was #4. the vehicle barrier design and median paint are quite distinctive.

my brain is having a hard time comprehending how the door on the left connects with the brickwork.
― Ste, Wednesday, 18 May 2022 14:51 (two years ago) link
The building on the left clearly needs that alarm system, doesn't it.+ what a mysterious row of windows to the right - with the red panels. Not garage doors... - also that very high light pole straight ahead, there must be a big area there I suppose?
― StanM, Wednesday, 18 May 2022 14:59 (two years ago) link
the gray bit of building sticking out on the right is pretty distinctive too, imho
― StanM, Wednesday, 18 May 2022 15:00 (two years ago) link
I'm guessing the red brick building is a car park. Looks like there are about ten thousand modern red brick car parks in the uk. The building reflected in the window with the vertical fluting is also pretty standard issue.
― buffalo tomozzarella (ledge), Wednesday, 18 May 2022 15:03 (two years ago) link
I think there’s a playground at the far end of the park. Not that it narrows down the location too much.

ftom what I gather, the double yellow kerbside is also used in Ireland (I’m ruling out former BE places like Malta, S’pore and Malaysia here)

that's not a Scottish flag above the door, right?

university campus ahead? train station? hospital? - no idea where to start clicking on a map, for now

not sure if that is a saltire above the door but that building does feel Scottish. pic reminds me of some places in Glasgow
― ignore the blue line (or something), Friday, 20 May 2022 13:22 (two years ago) link
Definitely reminds me of Glasgow too, but I don't recognise it at all.

Lots of Soviet-style housing blocks. One building I can see that might conceivable be a church, otherwise no churches. Main road in pretty poor condition. Cars look like they're driving on the right. Huge gash in the landscape on the left, looks like it might be an old open-cut mine or something. Couple of power plant type buildings. I'm guessing one of the poorer ex-Soviet countries.

intriguing indeed - I was convinced it could be Asbest but I can't make it work I think

The more I stare at that second photo, the more it looks like some kind of Lynchian hell. What's with the light switch that has no switch? The creepy pictures on the wall, of birds and cows? Why the shelf of rolled towels, in what looks like a bar/restaurant? The cowbells, the sad pot plant, the surveillance camera on the wonky ceiling?
