Where's That Then? No 33

This view is a very unexpected sight, considering what's at the top of the hill behind the photographer. I often bring people from a railway station not too far away, and without exception they all gasp with astonishment. Extra Wilkins Orange & Tangerine Marmalade for the nearby town.

That'd be Rockingham, just down the hill from the Castle - adjacent to Corby.

Marvellous, well done Office Pest. For those who don't know this village, it sits on a steep escarpment overlooking the Welland Valley, with a brilliant castle crowning the hill that's been in the same family since the Normans. I think.

For once, I knew the answer - and was beaten to it!

Welcome Lucy Locket, better luck next week!

What has really got me going, is trying to work out which station you would be traveling from to go through Rockingham?

That'd be Kettering Miss Locket. Although my last trip down hill was after meeting a train in the even nearer Corby. Lovely new station actually. Surprisingly.
