Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

%% years ago this morning (I think) mmt125.jpg Unfortunately not re-enactable today - the stone pillar went some years ago, and it is pouring with rain. %% years ago this afternoon mmt93.gif I'd like to think two people will be passing along here on the T2 bus today, and suddenly erupt into an argum...

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

Haven't been able to find this one though Teignmouth does seem likely. The pillars are quite distinctive. Looks like a pub or hotel. The bus seems to be on a gentle downward slope. mmt121.PNG I've always wondered who the character on the right was though. You see him in some of the other footage. He...

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

The Tecalemit Factory was actually beyond the left turn off for Embankment Road, and would have been on the right hand side of the bus - so it would appear that they may have overshot this and have had to turn around (briefly traveling east) for the factory to appear on the left, as it does in the f...

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

It's a difficult one to get exactly - certainly near Marsh Mills. There seems to be no trace of any of the buildings in the background now, and old photos of the area don't seem to include anything resembling them. The clue would then be the hill in the background, which also doesn't seem to exist e...

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

By the side of the Atlantic Hotel, my mistake, not the Hewer Hut which is further around the road.

Re: Magical Mystery Tour Location Question

Instinct wants me to say it's somewhere in the immediate vicinity of the Atlantic Hotel, with the bus parked in the overflow area across from where the bus normally parked. This would make the houses in the background the rear of Headland Road, though if so, then they would have since been demolishe...
