    Or; you could read the instructions in post one, and follow them. That’s the way this place is supposed to work!

    It's not that easy on a phone. I have had that problem before.

    Is it the location where Paul Revere did something?

    Paul Revere, major figure of the American Revolution. I thought at some point he had to observe a signal from a church tower. So I thought it might be this one. Evidently not. But would I be correct in thinking this scene is in New England?

    It's in New England. Thanks for the history lesson!

    Wasn't much of a lesson in fairness. I think the phrase "once if by land, twice if by sea" relates to this and there's a poem entitled "The Midnight Ride." I am not a Yank myself so not that up on U.S. history details. About all I know is they won.

    Still, I hadn't heard of him before now. What part of New England?!

    I was wondering if it might be something like the church that MLK used to preach at or something, so I looked it up

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dexter_Avenue_Baptist_Church

    But it’s not that!

    Paul Revere's famous ride to warn patriots that the Biritish were coming, was from Lexington MA to Concord. How about Salem MA?

    ... just south of Springfield...

    How awesome, given MT's tongue-in-cheek guess for Bletchley Park, would it've been if it was one of the five or six Springfields that meander from Maine down to upstate New York.)

    It looks like Connecticut or perhaps western Maine to me? Is there a Steve King tie-in?

    No, neither. In Massachusetts.

    Looks like Odessa, or similar, but I can't see that skyscraper in the background anywhere there.

    Agreed! Balmed, d'ya fancy explaining how in the world you found that? I made the rookie mistake of assuming the Arts Centre on the right was a church (though, in fairness, maybe it was once?)

    Excellent challenge all the same, BRB :)
