That looks like Langley Castle, not far from the neck of the woods I was born in.

Ok, I've used most of obscure but gettable ones up before so hopefully this isn't too obscure:

Ok, am I close though? Just across the border into Germany perhaps, near the North Sea.

Then it'll be somewhere not far from Emdem through Wilthinghaven-whatsit where it looks a lot like Holland

Hopefully someone will post a name, but it's starting to look unlikely.

Well the whole point in this thread is not to google it. It's about knowing it, not being able to search for it.

Ok, at least give me the area of Germany it is in. I don't just mean Northwest Germany either.

Ok, I did say it might be too obscure and I guess it was. It is Pilsum Lighthouse in the East Friesland region of North West Germany.

Someone else post something, I'm obviously too obscure.

I've been here many times while I served for training purposes.
