Sorry for the delay. Been in town. Woody has it. I don't recognise it at all.

Bit of a clue, the original is probably on tv over the holidays

It's around the net and from a strange angle, if the Little Gem was visible you would have got it.
St Annes Square.

I believe we are in the Disney's Hollywood Studios lot of Walt Disney World, Orlando, FL., here

on the Indiana Jones Spectacular set.
The aircraft appears to be derived from the Heinkel He219 Uhl, with added turned-down wingtips.
OH if correct.

O/H it is then

To keep this thread alive try this:
It is a 30+ year old photograph but archway still looks the same.

That's the arch in Fettercairn with the Ramsay Arms Hotel visible to the left and through the arch. It's just a 15 minute drive from my house. They narrowed the road through the arch with kerbs to only allow cars but so much damage was done to car wheels they have widened it a bit again. During one of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert’s many visits to their Scottish retreat at Balmoral Castle, the couple elected to stay overnight in Fettercairn. To celebrate their arrival the arch was constructed at the western entrance to the village. Fettercairn distillery is worth a visit if you are ever in these parts.

From the other direction nowadays: O/H upon confirmation please.

Fettercairn it is (didn't last long!) as correctly identified by C16.

OH has been declared (again)

How about this one?

OK, perhaps it's too hard. The view would have been very different 20 years ago, so you might have to guess what was there before.

Would England be a place to start ?

I've seen the view before, and I'm struggling to remember where.
Some kind of renewal scheme, maybe student accommodation on an old steelworks.
Wodrick's right, England is correct, I think.

England is the correct place to start, yes.

Would that be a seat of learning? UEA in Norwich?

Not a seat of learning. This will probably give it away though:it does have a sporting connection.

Think I may have cracked it - is it Highbury, the former home of Arsenal FC as it is now ie converted to flats?

Yes, that's the place. DBx to kick off next.

Thanks. Here's another:




Family about to arrive so away from pc for a while so if found just carry on.

Being as I am nautically minded these days, I remember seeing something about this on my news feed, yes even over here on the other side of the pond. I felt I had to look it up, really cool history, but I will recuse myself having looked it up in detail.....

Looks like a time ball tower but where.
