Help Identifying a Picture Location

[Ianh]

Helo

Can anyone help please? I am trying to find the location of this image - taken in 1961 of a Jaguar E Type. Long story short - a friend of mine owns the car and arranging for a framed picture for his 60th - piecing together the history for an inscription. Obviously a golf course - but where? The car came from Browns Lane Jaguar plant in Coventry.

Sorry to clog up this forum with car stuff.

Many thanks.

Try Google Goggles?

Based on the grey building, fir trees and a bit of ginger in the burds hair, I'd say Scotland somewhere.

Nah, it's not raining.

The car is parked on the right. That might not be important, since it seems to be a private driveway rather than a public road, but it might be a hint that it is not in the UK at all but rather continental Europe. France maybe? The shape of the house suggests that to me somehow.

Try sending it to Jaguar - facebook, twitter etc.

It could be one of their own promotional photographs and someone there might recognise it. Or they might have used the same golf course for more photo shoots back in the day. Worth a try I reckon.

Social media is the way to go, you can reach so many people very quickly.

Thanks for the suggestions - I have spoken with Jaguar and whilst it is one of their press shots they have no idea where it was taken.

I wil try social media etc.
