I think there's a bit of the set still down there isn't there?

Certainly you can see the bridge from the road. I always meant ot drop down to see what's still there but have never got around to it 😞

my orders are to sit here and watch the world go by

Vanoord's pic from a couple of years ago also suggesting it's still reasonably intact:

Also just noticed there's a few archive photos as well:

Is the bridge purely a prop from the film or is it the same 'fine wooden bridge' that AJR refers to?

Looks rather too well constructed to be a film prop... 🙂

The map is the territory - especially in chain scale.

Is the photo bottom left taken at Glynrhonwy, or somewhere else?

Some of them are of the actor's wandering off between call time in the surrounding area, but I couldn't tell you precisely where that was, due to fading memories.

I know this is slightly off topic :offtopic: , but I have a copy of the soundtrack to the film in my ever growing list of albums by Tangerine Dream. Perhaps I should now watch the film knowing where it was shot.

If it can't be grown it has to be mined.

Looks like the pics have been taken down from the site 😞 😞
