It would be a lovely gesture on your part to choose one of the others  Cheesy

Right, no. 7 shows two Indian-looking women dancing and there is an Indian Orthodox Church in Pilning, of all unlikely places, so assuming a tenuous GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) connection, I'm saying 7 is Pilning, probably in the Indian Orthodox church hall or the hall of the school attached to the church.

Even though I don't think it really is.

Love the answer ... you're right in saying it isn't, though!

(Clue - location a bit busier than Pilning!)

I would have thought south side for trains heading west ... but the station's right. Very recent picture though, so it might not have fully developed yet Cheesy

But then I suppose I broke my own request by answering 2 in 1
