what is wrong with southern England wasnt ruled out until ATW

Betws-y Coed

Roman Bridge? I've got a story about there.

 

[Y Ddraig Coch]

Go on let's hear it while we wait for next clue? Roman Bridge is the middle of nowhere, literally. I'm sure any story will probably be the most exciting thing to ever happen there.

 

[DanNCL]

Sorry it's neither Betws-y-Coed or Roman Bridge

Fishguard Harbour?

 

[RJ21]

Roman Bridge, I was going hillwalking and asked the guard for the train to stop, he looks at me with one of those puzzled and slightly shocked expressions and says "are you sure?" I answered yes, the reply to that being, "just checking". Returning off the hills I stopped the train, different guard, opens his door in the pouring rain sticks his head out and says something like, this is a rare occasion. Seems like they don't get many people for there in November, and those they do take oversized wellies.

 

[Y Ddraig Coch]

I thought it would be something along those lines. It really is in the middle of nowhere , not near anything, no town , village anything and there certainly isn't a roman bridge!!!
