Thank you Stewie. I can see Barton Point from my front garden, and I do go to see the trains regularly on Sunday afternoons through the summer, so it was instant recognition of your photo with no research needed on that one.


Next one, I took these photos last year. They are 2 views of the same building.

Well done Pete you are correct, its  the former Tunbridge Wells West station building but the  Spa Valley railway operate a service from a 'new' station just next door.

You’re clearly on a role Stewie. It is indeed one of the lighthouses, which possesses a dedicating inscription and date.


Over to you


Thanks CAT I think I have got more in the past week than in 2020! Here is the next one, taken a few years ago now but still there as far as I know. Where is this ornate clock tower?

Perfugium miseris = A place of refuge in distress.  Appropriate for a harbour.
