No. 3, Norham Gardens, named "Garford House". Grade II listed. Built in 1866/67, architect: Charles Buckeridge. This photograph shows the house just like it was originally built. Later, in the 1890s it was heavily extended (by about 50%) to the west (right), the entrance was moved to the street side and a large porch was added. The conservatory seen here was demolished, a new one being built at the houses' southeast side. Photographs from the 1960s show a second entrance door, vanished again in the 2000s, thus this house would have had been temporarily subdivided into multiple flats. That's why the brickwork of the front fassade looks a bit cobbled together today. Offered for sale at £ 5.5m in 2017, finally sold in 2022 to Atlantic Institute who refurbished the house as an 8-bedroom fellows residence and named it "Kopanong". The house in the background on the left is No. 5 Norham Gardens (by W. WIlkinson, 1865) which, although later divided into 4 flats, has retained its original character since 150 years. Sources: - T.

Margareta Sarring Thank you for your remark! We corrected the mapping of this image!

I believe this is the south choir aisle at Hereford cathedral.

I agree with Aidan - is no-one checking these unidentified photos on flickr?

Alas it seems not, I made a few identifications here (including two in the UK set that were actually in France!) but I see nothing's changed. I was also keen to know where these amazing tombs are, don't suppose you have any idea Phil?

Oh - WOW! Wow! Now you have me intrigued as well. Could be Cheshire, North Wales area.........

Stunning aren't they! I wondered if they were up north somewhere; I wish there was some way we could get this on GWUK and let nature take it's course!
