Peter, any clue to the location of this place?

It is proving to be a difficult one to remember Nev. There is always one, as is the common belief, and what makes it more difficult is; I don't remember how we got there and back, to Standish. We seem to be dressed for something other than prowling about old buildings, but as it was then, I photographed anything for a laugh. I have just one more pic. on this, and I hope it will jog someones' memory, 'cause it doesn't mine. My thoughts keep throwing me back to Gidlow pits, 1 & 2, but not sure.
