It looks to me as if you are only a few yards out Nigel, which I feel is a bit picky!

Since the bridge would be easy to find, I thought I would make it more challenging to ask for the specific road I was on. And that road was not the Diemerzeedijk. But since you all seem to find that unacceptable because Google doesn’t show you the right answer, fine, Diemerzeedijk it is. Congrats, Nigel, you win.

I'd like to know the name of the road please Levina so I can check it out on Google because the road outside Peek is definitely called Diemerzeedijk. It continues round a fair way so maybe I've missed the point you took it from but I spent a long time looking for a viewpoint that gives the same angle of view as your image. I'll leave this open for someone to take but if you want to let us know the road name that would be great thank you.

Well, it was a bit of a trick challenge. Technically the correct answer was indeed Diemerzeedijk, I just wasn’t ON it. I was instead on the path down by the water, which Google maps calls Waterkeringpad. I hoped you would recognise it by the fact I was down at the water level and not looking down from the dike. Sorry for the confusion.

Here’s a screengrab from Google maps.

Thanks, Nigel.

Just a town name will be fine for this one.

WAIN?

Did Romans live there and take advantage of hot springs?
