algy Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Where in warrington and on what buildings are these to be found. 1. 2. 3. 4a. together with. 4b. 5. I don't suppose this will pose much of a challenge to those who walk around with their heads looking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Is number 3 a drain pipe on a local pub ? I'm sure I've seen it somewhere. Number 4... they look familiat too but I have no idea where I may have seen them. Crossfeilds ? Museum? Old tech college ? Guess I must be a straight ahead looker rather than an upper looker these days and your pics are bugging me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have blanked out words as it would give the game away, when they have been identified i will post the complete photos. I've a feeling Baz may come up with the answers certainly to No.2 as he will have seen a similar photo on a website I know he has seen.

Evil Sid Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I think no1 is the bank (not sure which) next to hancock and woods or at least very close to it. no 3 I think is the building next to where McDonalds is in bridge street.(to the right off it as you look at the entrance?) Nos 4a and 4b are on the top of the old boots building in bridge street. as for that last one I have no idea but may hazard a guess at the three pigeons.

Dizzy Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 oooh Algy will tell you off for posting that picture Evils I have always been one of those who often looks up at the tops of all the wonderful buildings on Bridgestreet, after all there's not much worth looking at at ground 'shop' level is there... Bridge Street it tatty to say the least at that level.. but I'm rather ashamed to say that I have never ever noticed those two wonderful sculptures and I have no idea why I need to start looking with bigger open eyes again as I wonder what else I have missed and what most other people probably miss too.... ps anyone informed the council that they are there Can;t wait to find out where the others are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Sid, No.1 is not the bank. No.2 incorrect. No.4 & 4a correct. No.5 incorrect, clue - not in Bridge St. but not as far out as the 'Three Pigeons' & not on a pub but not far from a railway line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Correct arty, it is called Bank house. No.1 & 2 are the only remaining ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm confusing myself for the second time in a matter of minutes... what and where were 2 and 3 again as I can only see a guess from Evil Sid for 3 and you said 2 was right, sorry I'm a bit thick today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Dizz, it's not you that's going barmey it's me with the toing & froing between answers I confuse myself and your correct No's 1 & 2 have not been identified correctly. Sid correctly identified No.3 as being above McDonalds in Bridge Street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Phew thank goodness for that I thought I was going mad I guess you were really just gettinng your own back on me for not changing the title on your spitfire topic I still feel bad about that. Anyway... Is number 1 on some sort of a religious building as the bloke has an odd hat on and flowers ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Not actually a religious building although you are in the right area Dizz, and the name would certainly suggest that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 No Dizz, stay in the Bridge Street area. Go into Google Maps and use the little orange man to look up at the buildings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 No cos that is cheating... I want my brain to remember where I have seen the patterened backgound. It's there on the tip of my 'eye' I can visualise it but I can't bloody remember YET ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 My first thought on waking up this morning was not... great it's saturday, the suns shining or anything like that. It was 'where's the building on Algy's picture' probably due to the fact that I was on the forum in my sleep. That is not good So I have taken your advice Algy and wandered up Bridge street with the little orange man whilst looking up. I still can't find the damn thing. I may try some of the other roads shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
