Quiz Quwstion-Where Is This?
Below are a series of photos showing the remains of a piece of WWII history.
All that is now left is the ballustrade, the site being long demolished and used as a visitors' car park. I am confident some here will know where it is but hope the answer will be of interest to many here.

I don't want to give too many clues away and I'm sure you'll both understand why when the location is revealed.....but yes, it is 'somewhere' in the UK. |
Totally random guess...

Is it one of the places where the Brits trained the 'special ops' teams?
ie: Altrincham, Cheshire |
I'll take a punt and say somewhere in Northumberland.:O:
|
I hate randomly guessing.
But I'm guessing it has something to do with the X-craft. The little subs. That or it kinda reminds me of where they would train spies to drop into occupied france |
It's where Nelson gave his "We will fight them on the beaches" speech before going on to destroy the Spanish Luftwaffe at the battle of Jutland?
