Sometimes we come across very cool locations, and the wayfinder in me always thinks: can it be a wayspot?
The same happened to me yesterday when I went on a canoeing trip, and found this cool art piece in the middle of the water, so yes ineligible as a wayspot due to accessibility issues (see the picture).
This made me curious about other stories, have you come across locations where you thought that would be a cool wayspot. Only to realize it meets a certain rejection criteria so you end up not submitting the location?
Its the oldest inhabited castle in the world, dating back almost 1,000 years! It is home to the royal family at times, plus many staff members also live there. It is open to the public and has huge historic and cultural significance, and the chapel pictured is a working church where anyone is welcome to attend services. You can go on guided tours or take an audio tour of the chapel and the state apartments. It also had the most wonderful cafe.
The whole area is blocked out from in game features though - I took screenshots of how funny that looked. So I didnt submit anything.
Techinically 2 grade A listed buildings (but i woild have submitted them as one of allowed), they were designed by charles rennie macintosh, who designed things like the kelvingrove art gallery. But they are also single family residences lol
I have several of these in my town. There is an entire street of protected structures in my town. Unfortunately all SFPRP apart from one which is currently being refurbished and I am hoping will be a business as it was formally a political office.
Beautiful Cut limestone buildings but unfortunately no good unless I win the lottery and but them all and change there use.
I passed a house the other day with a beautiful sculpture in their front garden. It makes me sigh when I look at something like that and think…wayspot and just as quick think…SFPRP.
I tend to keep moving during my submission trips, so I didn’t stop for great photos of my example - but you can see it lurking in the background of my Footbridge submission here -
Hammondsport, NY is the home of the Glenn Curtiss Museum. Glenn Curtiss, known as the “Father of Naval Aviation”, was a true innovator with a special fascination with seaplanes. This Seaplane sculpture stands in the waters of Keuka Lake, honoring the town’s most famous son and his heritage. This replica of a 1913 Model E “flying boat” is pictured nicely on TripAdvisor at Champlin Beach Park (2025) - All You Need to Know BEFORE You Go (with Reviews) - a great place to explore in the Finger Lakes!
definitely parts of it!
