It wouldn’t let me share from my photo library so I have taken a photo of the photo, sorry it’s not as clear as it could be.

I like it better this way up but I still can't say what it is. Looks like Horseguards in London but isn't!

Is it a city gate somewhere?

This isn’t looking good, I’ll leave it till Sue sees it, and if she doesn’t get it I will reveal all.

Of course, just checked it out. It faces the port and leads into the city. I don’t think I have ever looked at it as its usually so crowded with people and cars everywhere we tend to just push through. Though mainly we go to the port to catch the ferry to Iles d’Arz
