Now we gotta move..."


I think it's somebody's birthplace, but I can't guess who...

[Rifleman]

European office of Napolean Solo & Illya Kuryakin ?

[ozzy72]

The forerunner to Gitmo?

Not the faintest old chap. I didn't even know there is a South Midlands.

PS. Wild guess. GW's birthplace?

Can't be. The stars and stripes wouldn't make sense and I believe his house has a plaque. Not that there is any solid evidence to prove he came from there at all.

My guess is it's the birthplace of a founding father.
