Looking into the far distance, I can see large ships on a river. Estuary?
I'm thinking - docks.
Immingham?
Which would lead to an inland site to the NW of the docks.
And up pops THORNTON ABBEY, on Google Maps.

That is much more recognizable. I was quite pleased with my sleuthing there, knowing you had been in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire (and Derbyshire)    Great shot. Was the previous one taken at distance?

Both shots with the Mini 2, no cropping. The abbey wasn't open so I had no chance (and no disagreement) with flying from the grounds. I was standing in the car park.

I thought it must have been you.  Obviously, you picked an opportune moment for your visit - either by luck or good judgement

Yes, maybe, They might not have liked me flying close to the gate house even if that would've been legal. Though I should have flown through it with the fpv - but didn't...

It would have been spectacular, no doubt. But sometimes discretion is called for
I'm surprised David hasn't pitched in for this one yet.

It was due to stop raining at 6am and hold off until the evening,    I went out just after 6 and 30 mins later got completely soaked.   And it's not stopped lashing down since.

This may be the harbinger of a Winter of Discontent

Thanks, Downtown.
The teasers aren't really supposed to look good but to be revealing but not too much...
