    Your response is ambiguous!

    If you agree with Spamcan81 then you are correct to agree.

    If you disagree may I refer the honourable Gentleman to Image 16 of the same set where - from a different angle - the location cannot be Bridgnorth given the hill at the back of the Bridgnorth shed site whereas the image shows a low.
