Best views of the nose moving are in the following positions.
On the Ground floor next to the fire exit, Aircraft Fwd Starboard
On the Ground floor under the wing of the Lancaster Aircraft Fwd Port

Brooklands Museum have been passionately restoring their Concorde G-BBDG since 2004. This aircraft was a Production test airframe and used to obtain the CoA and fine tune Concorde for airline use.
Check weather for the day!
Viewing the nose move is extremely good from all positions around the front of the aircraft and from every angle, no problem here with viewing restriction as the aircraft is outside.
Currently no high view for the nose move is available so any photo's will be from the ground.
