Looking at the style of clothes it must be an old picture not many years after the valley was flooded or may be even just before it was flooded.

I know the buildings were flattened before it was flooded so may be the bridges were as well.

Got to agree with the previous 2 answers, must have been taken one of those years when the water was very low

I will go along with that one Stuart,

It was taken during a drought 1970/71 perhaps?

Any guesses as to where this is? It is now covered over, not a very good picture I agree but the best I've got

Come on you fishermen don't you reconise the hut/toilets on the banks of the Damflask?

lol

I hang my head in shame,

Must admit I never even thought there would be anglers huts on the banks of Dam Flask

in 1948, a bit before my time :rolleyes:

And what is even more annoying for me is,

If that's the same bridge/tunnel that I'm thinking of (where Ughill brook enters Dam Flask) Link to Flash Earth

I remember fishing from the exact same position as the people are stood.

That would have been around 1975, I think

L don't think it would be in the exact same position Steve as this is when the dam was drained, this bridge is at the

bottom of the dam. :unsure:
