As with my comment on ADW272 this crane is most likely in storage in Hunting Butts cutting. It is not a publicly accessible and viewable location. With the aid of binoculars the sidings can be seen from the south end of the Race Course platform. It's not really possible to peer over the parapets of the A435 road bridge overhead as they have been raised up by extra courses of bricks, in conjunction with a new combined foot and cycle path scheme.

That photo looks like it was taken in the cutting north of Toddington. I believe the crane is in store at the other end of the line in the sidings in Hunting Butts. south of Cheltenham Race Course station.
