4 Hunstanton, or "sunny Hunny" as it's known to its fans. Fun fact - it's the only east coast resort where the beach faces the sun in the afternoon and evening.

9. Barry Island The building in the background features in another picture, but I won’t say which so as to stay within the rules of the game  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

I would have sworn 2 was Burton-on-Trent, looking towards Derby. On reflection it couldn't be (Burton is an island platform) but they do look very similar!
