Britain's most photographed viewpoints
Ten lookouts that have shaped the visual idea of Britain.
Some viewpoints have become so iconic they shape how we imagine Britain — Sycamore Gap on Hadrian's Wall, Buttermere from the Grasmoor ridge, Quiraing on Skye, the Glenfinnan viaduct, the Cheviot at sunrise. We've picked ten with road or trail access, where the famous photo can still be repeated. All are timed for golden hour.
