An article out today in both the 'Independent' and 'The Times' identifies the embassy featured in the Sunday Times paper November 2 as the Pakistan Embassy. It is situated in Lowndes Square, London SW1 at the junction of Harriet Walk SW1. The building is as described, work is going on with scaffolding to the rear. On the roof is a bright shining log-aperiodic antenna, pointing in an easterly direction.
