My brass monkey mutilation was not entirely in vain, here is a picture of my original b/w photo of Bleak House in Broadstairs, one of Charles Dickens' houses. I claim Kent!! :-D

I can offer nothing for Northern Ireland as I haven't been there! Hope that someone else has?

Apologies folks, I can't have Derbyshire being the the last to be claimed, too much affection for some of its places for that..so the glove temporarily removed.

NF claims Derbyshire

Here we have the Olympic torch going through Glasgow (Great West Road I think) in 2012. That apparently bags Lanarkshire.

I could do Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire if I went back through my posts on the 'double post box' thread. :)

Well my loft activity yielded many pictures of many places but nearly all have already been claimed, however we did have a week in Scotland boating up and down Loch Ness but the only picture I found is not exactly inspiring, however it does justify me claiming Invernesshire

The act has to be carried out Gibbo, you have it in your power to save Gloucestershire! I might pitch in and save Monmouthshire with an Abergavenny special!

Just down the road from Glasgow is Greenock. We visited there doing family history research. This is Crawfurd Street (not a misprint). You can just see the outline of a roof from the terraced houses that used to be there on the back wall of the warehouse.

This bags Renfrewshire.
