Sorry for the delay folks, I forgot to set the permissions last night and I've been away from the internet all morning. Anyway, here's today's single part question, with a few extras to keep you busy.  (click for a larger version) For ease of reference, the insets are numbered according to the diagram below  |

Inset 1 is Tyntesfiels, it's a gate to the walled garden photographed this summer.
If M happens to spot this, it was this gateway that prompted my text asking for a translation!

I'm on my phone at the moment so I can't verify the exact spot you mention, but the subject is correct and I did take it from the Thames Path.

My answer sheet says: Inset 4: West side of Greenwich peninsular, your answer sheet is ungrammatical: peninsula (noun): an area of land almost surrounded by water (Latin: pen - nearly + insula - island) peninsular (adjective): of, or relating to, a peninsula - e.g: the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company ("P&O") the Peninsular War [/pedant mode off] |

Sorry. "Peninsula"/"Peninsular" is a word pair I've never managed to get sorted in my head.
