I think I know what you are thinking. You are in the right place.
I'm not sure I am I was thinking of football clubs - Crystal Palace - suppose the location could be S or H for the actual crystal palace but I suspect I am wrong.
I may as well be wrong twice and suggest the obvious that the last one is D for Downtube Shifter[Castle Donington Ladies FC - going up in '22]0 -
No not Crystal Palace and the clue is in the question - 'Location'. Oddly, the Club in question has the same initial letter.
It's not current.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
