I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread in which we could post photos of Bond locations, from the novels, films, and other media.

For example, here are some photos of locations from Ian Fleming's novel Moonraker.

Dover, that "wonderful cardboard castle" (chapter 10).

The best candidate for the "World Without Want" Pub is the Five Bells, in Ringwould, on the Dover to Deal Road. Here is where my namesake, Major Tallon, met hs demise.

The interior, where Tallon was murdered.

Ebury Street, where Drax kept Gala prisoner (Chapter 19).

It is also where a certain author of popular fiction once lived.

Very nice!

I have quite a selection from the UK, Italy, Austria, India and beyond, and will try to post them here once I have them all back on my computer.

Great, Major Tallon. Insider photos from a great James Bond novel by the late great Ian Fleming.
