    That's still there beside the later one but it's a single storey "blockhouse" type.

    A stirring idea. I'm sorry, too.

    Could it be West Raynham? The tower looks similar to me, though the background may be a little too sparse and I'm not sure of runway headings.

    It does look like West Raynhams, according to Control Towers, Castle Bromwich had what looks like a Fort style tower, could it be a mix up from Castle Donnington, to Castle Bromwich, but as above have no idea of runway headings

    West Raynham's main was 04/22, and the subsid was 10/28

    Here's another suggestion - Leconfield.

    It has a 4698/43 modified Fort tower, with no large buildings behind (if my memory is correct), and has an 01/19 main runway.
