Old Tower in the Hul area
« on: Saturday 26 September 09 12:06 BST (UK) »
Hi All
Could anyone help in finding the location for this photo. I believe it may be in the Hull area of Yorkshire. Someone may recognize the tower in the left background.

Many thanks

That's definitely it.  Compare the positions of the lighter coloured stonework, and look at the position and line of the boundary fence immediately, in front of the tower.
