Heathrow has one too:

As well as a moving Concorde it would seem

What makes you think it's moving?

I was going to ask that, there are two stationary ones south of
terminal 4.

Ah, found it, there's one just off runway 23 at the north end.
Seems an odd place to be, given it is not on the runway iteself but
on the 'hard shoulder'.

I think the plan is to move that Concorde into or next to Terminal 5
eventually. Runway 23 hasn't been used for years AFAIK. The aircraft
stands beyond its southern end have to be cleared first before it can be
used.

27R appears to be the landing runway, given there's an
aircraft taking off from 27L. On the other hand there appears to
be a queue of 5 aircraft in two lines heading for 27R

No, 27L is the landing runway, and the plane on it has just landed and
is turning right into one of the slip-roads or whatever they're called.
