Anyone Know the Location Of This Concorde?

[nssd70]

I found this photo in my Great Uncle's slide collection,and was wondering if anyone knew the location. The Slide has a April 1974 stamp on the back,so I'm thinking the photo was taken in 1973 or early 1974. The tail number is G-AXDN.

Not much to go on from that photo, Doug. That was the first pre-production Concorde, and from what I've seen, after its first flight in 1971, they flew it out of RAF Fairford during their test program in the early 1970s. According to this site, in August 1972, it went back to Filton (where it was built) to be upgraded to production standard, including new engines. It returned to Fairford for further testing in early 1973. If I had to guess, I think it could be Fairford. And as Chris said, it is now on display at Duxford.
