    It looks like I was right with Salcombe as I have now found a photograph which enables this to be confirmed. The photo is EPW024190.

  • I was concentrating on the job in hand and turned around. I can say the views are absolutely stunning. I can understand why this is such a desirable place to live.

  • I've been looking at the Sandhills Road area of Salcombe. The road system looks possible but I can't identify any of the houses. I guess it's back to the drawing board unless anyone else can help. A seaside location would help to explain the flagpoles.

  • Think you are in the right area.
    With the rolling hills in the background,house types and flagpoles have always thought this looks like somewhere in South Devon.

  • Lots of vertical poles. Thought they were flagpoles because they're white. Telephone poles ?

  • I'll put Hythe in Kent into the ring as a possibility. I'm not at all sure but someone with local knowledge may be able to help.
