Print the piccy, print an old map of the area (1909 OS should do) and then work out the angles from common points (the mid-point of the chapel/church roof in the background, the middle of ther building background, far top right)...easy.the base point is the middle of the bottom of the piccy. You should get to within 20ft, allowing for height.
Already done that on the 1909 map, and got it down to between the bank and Boots Chemist on Blackburn Rd, and the elevation from a top story window.
