Hello, I’m trying to identify where this WW2 photo was taken
between 1943 and 1945. My father was with Polish GHQ Signals;
I believe the photo was taken in London or the home counties.
The building looks like a rotunda, single storey, barred windows,
plant troughs over entrance.
I know he was at the Stanmore Polish wireless factory for a while,
but I have never found a photo of it anywhere, has anyone else?

Could that be a municipal or company office building that has been requisitioned? The ground outside looks unkempt with a dead plant and those castellations look more like planters. No idea where though.

Thanks for looking. Yes those are four flower planters over the doorway.
Certainly I think this is a requisitioned building, close to London.
Hopefully having posted this on the internet, someone may recognize
some time in the future.
The building style looks Art Deco, see if you can find any websites etc about Art Deco architecture and try asking there. Someone who has studied the style might recognise it.
