Good work Or Something, I was just coming to post a second view, not realising it had been found

Safely say that's somewhere in this paradise we call the UK

Yeah, feels incredibly familiar yet also I have probably never been there.

my brain is having a hard time comprehending how the door on the left connects with the brickwork.

The building on the left clearly needs that alarm system, doesn't it.
+ what a mysterious row of windows to the right - with the red panels. Not garage doors... - also that very high light pole straight ahead, there must be a big area there I suppose?

the gray bit of building sticking out on the right is pretty distinctive too, imho

I'm guessing the red brick building is a car park. Looks like there are about ten thousand modern red brick car parks in the uk. The building reflected in the window with the vertical fluting is also pretty standard issue.

I think there’s a playground at the far end of the park. Not that it narrows down the location too much.

ftom what I gather, the double yellow kerbside is also used in Ireland (I’m ruling out former BE places like Malta, S’pore and Malaysia here)

twice the same typo for the price of one!

that's not a Scottish flag above the door, right?

university campus ahead? train station? hospital? - no idea where to start clicking on a map, for now

not sure if that is a saltire above the door but that building does feel Scottish. pic reminds me of some places in Glasgow

Definitely reminds me of Glasgow too, but I don't recognise it at all.

Preston! i recognised the bus station

Hey Preston! nice one!

i recognised the bus station

In the first shot too, though it was difficult to get a view with it in from that angle

heyheyhey

Lots of Soviet-style housing blocks. One building I can see that might conceivable be a church, otherwise no churches. Main road in pretty poor condition. Cars look like they're driving on the right. Huge gash in the landscape on the left, looks like it might be an old open-cut mine or something. Couple of power plant type buildings. I'm guessing one of the poorer ex-Soviet countries.

intriguing indeed - I was convinced it could be Asbest but I can't make it work I think

googling "world's longest mine" brings up nothing apart from the deepest

I am confusion

the flags are from Swiss kantons https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flags_and_arms_of_cantons_of_Switzerland

kotamii is "cats" in Polish, but maybe it's kotam(mirrored N) & russian?

A cuckoo clock to complete the Swiss theme, but that first photo sure as hell ain't Switzerland. I'm still guessing Eastern Europe

googling "swiss themed bar" "swiss themed chalet" "swiss themed restaurant" + Russia , not being very lucky

The more I stare at that second photo, the more it looks like some kind of Lynchian hell. What's with the light switch that has no switch? The creepy pictures on the wall, of birds and cows? Why the shelf of rolled towels, in what looks like a bar/restaurant? The cowbells, the sad pot plant, the surveillance camera on the wonky ceiling?

yeah, the towels... is it the bar/dining area of a Swiss themed sauna/swimming pool?

It's definitely Russian on the sign - котами

Russia it is, then (or near/ex-Russia)

it's not this salt mine in Ukraine but there are some vv nice pics of it

still focussing on the first pic as the interior ones never do much for me. it's incredibly similar to Kryvyi Rih in Ukraine but while there are hundreds of aerial shots to go off i can't get any of them to line up

i think that's pretty obviously correct!

It's definitely Russian on the sign - котами

the object is the Ukrainian coat of arms with the trident within a horseshoe

Покровско-Терновской (объединенный) военкомат Кривого Рога

It is Kryvyi Rih! Tried it with the satellite image turned off and noticed a big depression just north of where I'd been searching

The sign is above the bathroom on the left.

omg well done! I had been looking for mines in Ukraine but somehow this one didn't show up or I did it wrong

what about the Swiss chalet thing?

what about the Swiss chalet thing?

have to say tho: it’s not really fun to scroll through photos of shops and restaurants and seeing people there who may very well be fighting in the war right now, or worse
