Where's Rickham?
Rickham is on the south coast of Devon. This is what Devon and parts of
Cornwall look like from space (from the STS009 shuttle mission -- click on the
pictures for a bigger image):

This is a closer picture showing Plymouth (centre) and the
South Hams taken on the same flight. Rickham is at the bottom right of the

If you've got a map; try looking at the rough area

If your map is a UK Ordnance Survey look at the large square about SX 74 37
