Henry Thomas HOUGHTON in officer cadet training - but where is it ?
« on: Thursday 07 November 19 14:23 GMT (UK) »
The attached picture shows my uncle, Henry Thomas HOUGHTON aka Harry and aka Bunty in Officer Cadet training (front row, 3rd from left)

But where is the picture taken, some suggest Culty Braggan Camp or possibly even somewhere in Barmouth, Wales.
Can any help pin this picture down for me please ?
and do you know when it may have been taken?

Thank you in advance of any help you can give

Patricia

A special thank you to Carol (Treetotal) for orientating my picture correctly for me. Inever seem to be able to get such things up the right way around.

and

Thank you to stanmapstone for showing me the steps of the hotel - the exact point where the picture was taken all those years ago - brilliant
