I think everyone is right to suggest the seaside.

The open windows and the ''observation tower'' do make me lean toward seaward views.

Is the aerial on the tower a communications device as opposed to weather vane? This would give a nod the to RAF idea by Trishanne


It does seem to indicate seaside doesn't it and I agree with Ruskie, has a Kentish look to it.

Interesting thought about the aerial and could well be a good path to search, as in RAF commandeered homes during the war.

I think that's a weather vane Caz. Any chance of a closeup?  :-\

And also a better look at the 'tower' which looks like a chimney behind the house?

I haven't had much success with the close ups, but here they are anyway. I am not sure whether
 the tower is another chimney stack, it certainly seems to have a chimney, but it is quite large.
There is a weather vane on top of  the tower, but there is also something on a pole in front of the tower.
The mystery goes on....

Aw sorry, I meant to do this, but got side tracked.  Thanks Pat.  I'll get the original and just scan those areas, that might help a bit.

And the buildings to the side. 

Is that a dog standing beside the bush?
