This stunning view could easily have been of the old station at Chalford, near Stroud in the Cotswolds. It's not of course: where is it?  |

DWS: since it's clear from another thread you obviously have a copy of the book I took the pic from (Edwards and Pigram), I hope you note the care with which I removed the location name from the bottom of the pic..  |

Yes I do have a copy of this book, which was printed in Yugoslavia, but the paper on which it is printed is very poor and the photos are not that good. |

Come on people - that last one was answered in less than 30 minutes, which hardly gives much chance of anyone having a fair crack at it. You are also spoiling the spirit of the 'quiz' IMHO. Discuss............ |

Discuss............ How about, in addition to when and where, another question HAS to be answered relating to the pic but not from the same book. |

Another moment of glory gone - I knew it was Chesham when I looked at it.

Agreed - It was the water tank and Met Signal Box that are the clues !

I thought it was Chorleywood at first, but what would I know?
