Can you identify where in London this picture was taken (a bit harder this week)? If you think you can, leave a comment below. We’ll reveal the answer early next week. Good luck!
It did indeed prove to be a bit harder this week! This decoration can be found on the south side of the exterior of Hampton Court Palace – the clue is in the intertwined initials W and M, standing for King William III and Queen Mary II. The joint monarchs commissioned Sir Christopher Wren to rebuild the entire palace but finances and time meant he only rebuilt the king’s and queen’s apartments which can be visited there today.

Could it be the Queen’s House Greenwich?
