I was checking some International airports with Google Earth and was
surprised to find a Concord parked just off the end of 23R.

I know there are survivors placed at various museums, however this
seemed somewhat odd placement at Heathrow.

Pretty sure it is their fire training mock-up as shown at the link below (if
it works - does for me), and very similar to the one they have at
Manchester. Looks a little like a Tri-star/DC10 but with stubby wings, lumpy
fuselage etc.
