[OhNoAPacer]

Horley?

Not Horley I am afraid, but I can see that your thinking is on the right lines.

 

[D6130]

Horsley?

 

[OhNoAPacer]

Horsley?

Not correct I am afraid.

 

[neilmc]

On the same grounds, I'll try Honley (Is there a New York bridge though??)

Not the right answer.

All the answers so far show me that people are thinking correctly, but maybe need to concentrate a little on the 'part of a bridge' element in the clue.

 

[RobertsN]

Just to add my tuppence, Horsforth. (got part of the horse, part of a bridge - small thingy near Edinburgh - but for the life of me can't fit in the French part).

 

[RobertsN]

Or maybe Ryde Pier Head (as in "ride", "Pierre", "head" of the bridge).

Incorrect I am sorry to say, don't think of a particular bridge.

Also incorrect, but mega respect for the thinking that went into this one.

The nearest I can get is Hart-le-pile

Careful, they are not keen on the french in hartlepool, especially ones they think are disguised as monkeys!

You will be utterly amazed when I tell you that Hartlepool is not the correct answer.

Think of the parts of a bridge.

Hung him from the nearest bridge!

 

[OhNoAPacer]

Okay, no guesses for over 24 hours so I will give a little clue, when considering bridge think stanton in a spaghetti western

 

[neilmc]

Harlech?

 

[OhNoAPacer]

Harlech?

Congratulations, you have the correct answer.

The platform is now yours.

 

[neilmc]

Place to watch railcar inch its way into the Highlands?

 

[D6130]

Crianlarich.

 

[neilmc]

D6130 didn't even question whether it was right, which of course it is! Seven minutes, I need to make them harder!

 

[D6130]

Take enema on the Down Main with your Right Hand en route to an East Anglian regional station.

 

[d9009alycidon]

Downham Market?

 

[D6130]

I can see where you're coming from, but not that one.

 

[RobertsN]

Doleham?

 

[neilmc]

I think it may be Needham Market, using DM and RH in the anagram

 

[D6130]

Absolutely correct. Apologies for the delay in replying, but I am currently in rural Tuscany with only sporadic internet connections. Your floor!

 

[neilmc]

So boring haulage marshalled on to road

 

[d9009alycidon]

Stallingborough?​

 

[neilmc]

Not stallingborough, but I think you're on the right lines as an anagram is involved.

 

[Loppylugs]

Gainsborough Lea Road ?

 

[neilmc]

Loppylugs has it, your turn!
