We seem to have an overhead loading/unloading facility, of realtively small size. The rails don't look very shiny and looking at the signage and CCTV cameras the picture is fairly recent (withing the past 5 years I would say). Unless you work at the site, I suspect you have taken the picture from a crossing of some form. A nuke facility would fit the description, let's try Bridgwater.

Right, a fairly difficult one here I think, so I'll give an early hint. The wagons above the shunter may give a clue.

The wgons are either modern p-way or look ancient, which suggests this is either a pway yard or a lucky shot in a general marshalling yard. The livery of the gronk suggests it is privately owned, ie not EWS or Freightliner. March Whitemoor?

No and no. It really is a difficult one so I'll give a couple of clues:

It is no longer exists
It was only intended to be temporary but while it lasted was one of the busiest freight locations in the country.

Along the right lines with the wagons, however it isn't the age of the non-ballast wagon that might be a clue - more where it originates.
