I'll go for the obvious - Penzance ?
Ivo

I haven't got he faintest idea. So, following on from Martin's idea, Falmouth.

It is the obvious. Over to you.

Drat.
Also drat on messing up in trying to get Post #1,000 (I looked at the reply count and forgot to add one on
).
Anyhow, some statistics shall be up shortly, probably within the hour.

Open floor - I'm at work !
Got that one from the vehicle registration, Ivo. Harvey's of Mousehole only ever ran one route.

It is nice to see that the thread has had a bit of a revival of late
I guess not
Anyhow, see what ye all make of this one. It comes from Google StreetView, and is thus not one of my own (unlike my previous three).

I honestly thought that one would be harder. If I wasn't local to it I certainly wouldn't have managed it.
The area in the picture has fallen on hard times. In 1996 it had something 5bph each way and more than double that during the peaks. Now it has about 4bph during the peaks - never mind during the interim period.

You left a fairly big clue in the picture. I didn't see it at first but once I spotted it it cut down the possibilities in a big way...can you guess what it is yet?
And where's this?

I hadn't realised, but I do now. Sigh... I blew it.
You refer to the banners I take it?

Oh bugger. Forgot to blank that out.
Probably would have guessed the same from vehicle type and livery, anyway.

Lydney.

It is Lydney. It'll be having a much needed makeover soon according to a report I read.

It certainly looked in need of some TLC when I was there last year.
This one is not called a Bus Station, but all routes to this place congregate here.

Is where it is.
I had to leave the destination screen on the Pride of the Dales Solo. It makes me smile whenever I see it. I was hoping that the Keighley & District bus might have caused a bit of confusion, as they didn't have any regular services to Grassington when I took the picture. That didn't work :roll:

I clocked the K&D bus but thought it was Transdev York at first and thought the solo was someone like Harrogate Coach Travel. I think I went around most of the other ex-Blazefield fleets before realising it was K&D!

The buildings behind make me think of Scotland, and for some reason Greenock. Never been there, mind.
