I appreciate I may not be in the right area of expertise to ask

for a while now. I've posed this question on several messageboards

I'd be grateful for any information.

If you mean the chimney next to and south-east

CORRECTION: I meant south-west

of the Royal Albert Hall, I think it's from the hall's boiler room.
A Google search produced a reference to a chimney and a photo at
http://www.unseenlondon.dns2go.com/r...rt/roofext.htm , but the
site seems to be down at present.
