As per Yerkes for #3 : +1 on Toronto Union Station. (And avoiding a guess for #1 of either The Great Wall of China or Hadrians Wall. )

Insets 7, 8 and 10 cannot be seen, as the year in the URLs is wrong. Here they are: Inset 7: Inset 8: Inset 10: Pass of Llanberris from Snowdon Mountain Railway [Chris M] *Click any image for a larger version*

Inset 2 is a Cathedral, but it isn't St Albans' Inset 4 is a pumping station, but it isn't in Essex (and I don't think it's for sewers)

Inset 2 - Wells Cathedral,although it looks a bit small

Inset 7 - Partick station with typical red sandstone tenements in the background. Close to old Merkland St underground and Partickhill "blue train" stations which I frequented.
