      It's the Watts Cemetery Chapel, in Compton village.

      Having driven past it so many many times en-route to some place else, I really should make the effort and "shoot" the village.

        Well done, Graham. When you go back, you need to look at the Watts Gallery and the unique (in this country) 2-storey sanctuary in the parish church

        Over to you again!

            Time for a clue, I guess...

              Is it a hospital or town hall?

                Neither. It was built in 1876-78,

                  It looks so much like the Watson Fothergill designed buildings in the Nottingham area. I'm pretty sure it's not one of his though as the furthest south he ever got was Essex.

                    It may well have been designed or based on his designs, as there is a link by way of the original use that this building was put too.

                      I think this is the last surviving bit of the Doulton pottery works on Black Prince Road, Lambeth. It was their museum and art school.

                        Yes! Indeed. I do so enjoy coming across gems like this...

                        I didn't have a wide angle with me so "stitched" that together.

                        Back to you.

                          A nice stitch, Graham! This was one of the first High Victorian buildings I came across when I moved to London in the late 1980s. I didn't have the knowledge then!

                          Next one to follow!

                              I think I know this one but am out of the UK at the mom. If there's no answer by the weekend when I return I'll have a punt then.

                                I'm in transit on my way home so a bit of time to kill. Is it Pershore Abbey? I'm sure that yellow digger was there when I visited.
