Former Ordnance Depot at Weedon Bec. The extensive barracks were begun in 1803 during the Napoleonic wars, but most of the buildings (including 12 powder magazines) have been demolished. This is a 180-degree panoramic shot and therefore the straight road appears as two roads. In fact it is parallel to the grass verge and canal in the foreground.
