Brilliant bit of detective work (and what a clever boy that Skoosh is too).

Yes, Skoosh was certainly on the right track from the start  :)

I think you're spot on!  The brickwork is the same with those cream bricks inset into the red brick and the Windows are the same too. Well done!  I wonder how the family was connected to a German Naval College

Chris

Now that is an interesting question  ;D

I would depend very much on what sort of date we are talking about.

Here's a google view (hope it works)

it looks like the quadrangle is now covered in tarmac.

We have friends who live in Schleswig-Holstein and we were there last summer. If I'd known I would have got them to take us to Flensburg to get some photos for you  ;D

Glad to have helped Carol  :) 

I was blundering around the internet last night looking at images but getting nowhere.  It was your post this morning giving details of Ralph Ord that made me dig into the family members and found Rupert.  I couldn't believe it myself when the images came up  ;D
