7/11 long weekend for 2 in Split, Croatia

http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/travel/where_was_i/article1271593.ece

Richard D'Oyly Carte who built the Savoy theatre, the first electrically run theatre, is buried in Fairlight, East Sussex. This is where they are standing.

the author to whom they refer is H G Wells (802701 is the year to which his time machine went)

The 1904 pencil like construction is the Dungeness lighthouse and there's a visitor centre at the power station. sorry my brain has gone into shutdown

  • I think Chichester is more than 36 miles from Fairlight as I think Brighton is 40ish. I'll do some investigating!

    I didn't enter kimmy, I read the post & decided I'd leave this prize for someone else :) Hard for me to take long weekend prizes due to the amount of time needed from work :o

    I'd offer to help but I'm pants at these types of comps :confused:

    Good luck!

    I think the answer is Boulogne - it's in another country and is a walled Cathedral town :confused:
  • I thought somewhere in France, because directly East isn't England, its France!
