This is one of several steam engine photographs taken by my great uncle Garnet Cross, whose father was an engine driver for Southern Railway. All the photos in this set were taken around the Southern Region, post-WW2 but perhaps some before it.
I would welcome any expert advice on location the picture was taken.
