Quiz Quwstion-Where Is This?

Jimbuna · 10-10-10, 11:24 AM

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.

Views of the ballustrade as you approach the site

The upper ballustrade...now a picnic area

Steps leading to the site that is now used as a car park

The view from the ballustrade with the site at your back

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.

...is that where they designed the de Havilland Mosquito?
