to my old peepers it looks like a helipad.
could it be the remotest place in the world?

Doubtful, you can see land on the horizon!

It's not a helipad, but look closely at the flag (get a young person to do this for you if necessary). Do you recognise it?

Is that a gun or cannon on the platform under the flag?

Right. Bit of a tricky question (unless you'd seen the same program I have)...

I don't know if it is a gun or not, but since it has been invaded several times, it's quite possible.

The flag is similar to T&T's but it isn't. And the land you can see on the horizon is England... so what's special about that particular lump of concrete?

before i go and have a look at flags of the world (which interests me anyway) i'll guess it is the virgin islands flag.
