Where am I… jb7Participant May 6, 2009 at 11:24 am No idea, but lovely shot- PeteWMember May 6, 2009 at 12:12 pm As far as I can see, there are no physically identifiable clues anywhere in this picture, to the best of my eyesight. So it’s going to be a process of narrowing down…. Looks European though to me….. 5faytheParticipant May 6, 2009 at 12:32 pm Hi All, I had seen all the stuff about clues but as you can see from my failure to answer up ’til now they went way over my head. This place is in Europe. It is a fort (although sometimes it is referred to as a castle). Seems to have had a very chequered history. Don’t know if that is any clue or not. We’ll see I suppose.

Was out trying to earn a living. Jeez ’tis getting harder. Both wrong. Below is a brief description of some of the chequered history I mentioned earlier. This is a Byzantine fort built to protect a harbor. Rebuilt by the Lusignans, it was dismantled by the Venetians and rebuilt by the Ottomans. Cheers, John. guthrijParticipant May 6, 2009 at 3:28 pm Paphos Castle 5faytheParticipant May 6, 2009 at 3:34 pm Hi John, Did I put too many googleable names into my hint or did you know it? Dosen’t matter anyway you are, of course, correct. Well done. John. guthrijParticipant May 6, 2009 at 3:59 pm Googled it to my shame! Here is another castle: BMParticipant May 6, 2009 at 4:06 pm Trumpton? cathaldParticipant May 6, 2009 at 4:15 pm Caerlaverock castle Dumfries 5faytheParticipant May 6, 2009 at 6:31 pm guthrij wrote: Googled it to my shame No shame in that at all. I think google helps get a lot of the answers on this thread. In hindsight Byzantine, Lusignans and Venetians in the one hint was a bit generous. randomwayMember May 6, 2009 at 6:41 pm Blanchardstown Shopping Centre? kenhParticipant May 6, 2009 at 7:33 pm 5faythe wrote: guthrij wrote: Googled it to my shame No shame in that at all.

Hey John, I managed to figure it out about one minute too late – gas really because I was in the bloody building just last October :oops: 5faytheParticipant May 6, 2009 at 7:58 pm Hi Ken, I was there for an Ireland V Cyprus match and really enjoyed walking round the Paphos area. Like a lot of places I have been I would like to revisit with the little extra photographic knowledge I have picked up in the last while. John.
