It is at Picky. The Orkney Rugby clubhouse is behind Peem, just along the road from where he lives now!
I'm not sure if it was this team or the KGS team the previous year that beat Hotspurs 18 - 0 in the first league match of the season. Tojo Mears was the Hotspurs goalie and even he was laughing at the score line as he was letting in the last couple of goals - typical Tojo.

Think by the position of the Cathedral this will be from Picky rather than the Bignold. You can see the clock face.
