ST6474 : North of west from the top of Lodge Hill
near to Kingswood, South Gloucestershire, Great Britain

North of west from the top of Lodge Hill
Near Chester Park, Bristol.
This image fits loosely between ST6474 : B4048 Lodge Hill, Chester Park, Bristol to the left and ST6474 : North west from the top of Lodge Hill to the right.
The substantial fence in the foreground surrounds an electricity sub-station. The houses beyond are on Woodland Way.
Further over stands the clock tower in the grounds of Blackberry Hill Hospital, formerly Bristol Mental Hospital, where some of the external scenes in "Casualty", a TV hospital series on BBC 1, were filmed.
Now look a little higher on the screen and you will see, I hope, very faintly, what the authorities call the Second Severn Crossing taking the M4 from Redwick to Caldicot. (In fact it is the fifth Severn crossing, sixth at least if you go back to prehistoric times).
