Lighthouse not that easy to see here, but the wreck might be a clue.

Ah one I think I can answer for once. I knew I had seen it and initially thought it was in Normandy but then remembered it was the Korean War Memorial in Washington DC. I presume the church must be Washington Cathedral but I haven't visited that.

Geoff,

Yes you have it. Cathedral of the Church of the Later Day Saints in Salt Lake City - Mormons.

As an aside to this you cannot visit it unless you are one of the brothers/Mormon. The rest of the tabernacle etc open and really interesting.

Right here a couple more.

The first: This is a famous building. Where is it and its name. This is the easy one.

The second is very topical - what are they and were are they.

The building is The Flatiron Building, originally the Fuller Building located at 175 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan

The statues are "Women are Persons! Monument" located on the grounds of Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario

OK: lets try these two.

The first one - what is it commemorating and were is it.

Number two - who is he and were is he. Not the country that is obvious.

No 2 is one of many 'Minuteman Monuments' from the War of Independence. - This one at Lexington.

No1 probably dates from the same period.

Malcolm G,

Yes Lexington - he is named on the statue if I remember correctly. Beer for a clue.

Yes but where is the monument and what does it commemorate.

The monument is similar to the one on Mount Adams, the highest point in Massachusettes. Could it be?
