You've got it Keith, over to you. It's simply the view looking down from the entrance.

No John, definitely looking down. Mike - not in Brompton Barracks, but within walking distance.

Looking up rather than down? Martello Tower?

This might go quickly, we have some experts on the forum, or else it will cause a bit of head scratching. Clue tomorrow morning if no-one asks questions or gets it.

That's the place MartinR
. The house was lost in the blitz. A modern building replaced it. In the 60s/70s it was an art shop with a technical division on the first floor where blueprints were produced for local companies. It's now a charity shop. The plaque is next to the shop door.
The big Wetherspoon pub opposite is named after
Thomas Ingoldsby.
Richard Harris Barham was born in
Canterbury
. When he was seven years old his father died, leaving him a small estate, part of which was the manor of Tappington, in
Denton, Kent
, mentioned so frequently in his later publication
The Ingoldsby Legends
Over to you MartinR
