Nice pictures there Medwayboy - interesting to see HDR in action.

... the view from the mother of all Battle Headquarters

Can't add much to the photos added apart from this one which made me think of "Whack Attack"

You've got to buy the book (after all Norwichpaul made us all do so in order to get back out of the prison) but here's a picture of the Battle HQ anyway (there's a better one in the book)

Thanks tigger a useful reference document that has pulled together some nice photographs and drawings with modern additions. I did not realise that there was a BHQ there. I now see that it is indicated on the D of B database.
