Sorry for delay folks, I do picture postings on this laptop as the iPad is hopeless (read that as I havn't a clue how to do it...) and herself was on a Zoom meeting yesterday evening. The joys of Sainsburys this morning, and here we are.
One of those 6" to mile OS map clues of a small village with everything there, School, Pub, Church, Vicarage and Church Farm.
Simple, but where? All the names of these features have been left on to help.

I've just had a look at the chart for the area.  There are three cables marked as running out from Dumpton Gap.  One seems to just peter out, but the other two run right across the chart in the general direction of Belgium.  There is, however, an annotation next to them: "Area of disused cables".  Well below my maximum anchoring depth though!
