Nope, you were closer before. Don't want to narrow it down too much yet but will say with Besançon you were in the right Région. Need to look for smaller places.

Is it in Franche Comte? Just want to confirm that you are talking about the province or is it the general region of France?

Yes this is correct, in Franche-Comte and Besancon was a good guess - it was actually very close but not the exact location.

No response here for the last two days so I'll stick this up...

Germany?

Bob24 · 25-05-2015 09:18AM

Fair enough.

The place was Musée des Maisons Comtoises, Nancray (Mehaffey1 was by far the closest).

A collection of old traditional famehouses moved from various places in the Franche-Comté region and Switzwerland and rebuilt one piece at a time in a park outside the village of Nancray.

Neither of these.

Ok, it's a day old so I'll give a clue.......

It's less than 1 KM from a location that was posted here in the past few weeks.

jmayo · 26-05-2015 10:35AM

France ?

Kinda looks like Eiffel bridge.

Red Kev · 26-05-2015 11:02AM

Not France

It is an Eiffel bridge though (according to Wikipedia).

EDIT: Just checked Wiki. The page on the town beside the bridge says it was built under the direction of Eiffel, however there's nothing on Eiffel's Wiki page about the bridge. So not sure what ye want to make of that. I suppose you can't always rely on Wiki.

Pont Eiffel
Viana do Castelo
Portugal ?

Scrub that it is

Valenca do Minho
Near Vigo in Spain

It is on the border with Portugal.

That was my blooming pic a few weeks back north of Vigo

I crossed the broder into Portugal neaer the coast so never saw this.

Red Kev · 26-05-2015 11:38AM

That's it alright.

The metal strip on top of the bridge is a railway. Both ends of the bridge also have the old customs and police huts built into the stone bridge supports, and there's a plaque on one of the supports half way down. I walked across it about 20 years ago, seriously frightening when a train goes across!

Ok here goes ...

Hopefully MT C hasn't been there or can use celestial bodies to work out it's position
