South Foreland.

is correct (assuming you hadn't read my rapidly edited post)

Jurek · « **Reply #2474 on:** 27 January, 2010, 11:51:05 am »

Truth is, I first thought it to be North Foreland - but didn't recall NF having the adjacent building with the black chimneys - so - a bit of a guess...

Happy for someone else to post a question, as it could take a while for me to do so........
