I can't work this one out of all, havebeen through all the UK football clubs, but just can't work it out ....
" Hard labour, paid and unpaid, is what this town's all about. It built its wealth block by block, can by can, barrel by barrel. Indeed, the town's citizens, and its football club, are named after their distinctive work clothes. On the bright side, it's one of the country's sunniest spots and the Hairy Bikers will be roaring into town soon. Name the town".

The pictures are (1) the hairy bikers, (2) a hand on on the lock of a prison cell (obviously the warder), (3) shadow of a helicipter on a helipad and (4) cods' heads sticking out of a box. I think "stone by stone" means granite. Is it somewhere in Scotland?

Many thanks, chox.

Aberdeen = the granite city. Helicopters for North Sea Oil. Fishing.
