I think it's the back of the Town Hall - was it taken from the top floor of the cinemas that was on Broadway.

The white building looks familiar - is it the old Burton's building?

If it is then the picture in the background is not the Town Hall, it's the library and the picture was taken from the Town Hall.

Not from Town Hall, I'd only go in there to throw eggs at he who thinks he must be obeyed.
Even a picture taken from the town hall, would not show that on the end of the library.
Anyway Katy has'nt responded yet she's still looking for her wings. A clue is that when I took that I was 60 ft up in the air, but where and how.

Hey you missed me ? I'm back ... bin working.

Not sure yet ... all the suggestions are good though.

As to where you were ... I guess you borrowed a fireman's ladder to take your photo ... :D

Near it was the Hydaulic Platform. I spotted them doing a drill so cadged a lift.
One or two came close to knowing the building, but the question was where was it taken from.
