 If you said 1050 metres high I would have said mountain railway. 1050 ft. is not that high so think again.

No sorry folks.

I'm uniquely shaped for my type.

It is feet Vince not metres, I did double check just in case Smile

That's the one John, doesn't matter that you looked it up. It is unique in that it is lozenge shaped, all other Roman Forts are playing card shaped. It's also the highest in the country.

Well done, your turn Smile

Sorry John, been a bit busy and didn't notice you'd posted this.

I seem to think Flavius was bumped off at the Roman Fort in Ambleside. Where I shall be on Monday Smile

Here at last Smile

I was built between 1667 and 1694.

I became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996. 

What am I and where am I ?
