Where was this Mopar Brochure/Ad Photo shot?

Multiple people figured out the location being in Arcadia National Park but none got back with the specific location.

Arcadia National Park: The bridge is simply known as the Route 233 Bridge.

When I first posted this I saw it more a challenge to locate this specific bridge. When my initial search led me to Arcadia National Park I didn't know the history of the stone bridges. I found multiple pictures of this bridge but none of them led me to the location. By then I knew of the bunch of historic bridges and figured there must be a list. The first list I found was of the 16 historic bridges and carriage road system financed by John D. Rockefeller Jr.

In looking at each bridge none of them matched that bridge so I figured it must be a contemporary bridge built some time after. So I focused on the roads and looked for where two roads crossed, almost immediately found this one. Fortunately there was Street View to verify it. This bridge was but in 1952 when the road was realigned one last two bridges built, the other a near twin over a carriage road just north of this, some of the pictures I found early actually turned out to be this one.

The yellow dots are the 16 historic bridges and the green dots are the contemporary bridges.

Next up is one that I was thinking would be a dud but was surprised when the search led to a match.

The 1956 Sunbeam is in the UK, there is a clear Street View from this perspective.

On this one the name of the Castle is all that is needed.

If I am right, it took me under 1.646 minute. Correct?
 
I have never visited this part of the planet, but now that I have looked on google maps many times, I am starting to see a trend in the landscape over there.
