I think I got it completely wrong ss44. I was thinking it was in reference to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucia_di_Lammermoor

Story is about two families and a place called Ravenswood Castle. Was a total stab in the dark =)

Edit: No TD I love a good bit of Opera too!

Hokeydokey, torqpoc.....you are very much on the right track, and in the correct local.

Remember I said that we are after a topographical feature... :)

Well I feel a bit of a dork. I was looking for a real place. I'm afraid Opera is not on my list of favourites.
Well done T.

A quick guess at your clue....................Low Bridge, Wiltshire?

Hi, ss44.......the Lammermuir Hills are real, lying south of Edinburgh.

The opera connection is the title of the Donizetti work "Lucia di Lammermoor"

Hello,

For TD and ss44, no guys, but you're close with the word analogy. I couldn't believe this name place existed, it's quite funny =)
