Well, you said name one of the streets so I went for the one central to the photo and not too obvious  ;D .     Luckily, I thought Rochester as soon as I saw the photo but I wasn't certain so a bit of searching in Google 3D helped me find it.  Another good one.

Next one ...   A nice easy one this time.

Good thinking Shoot999.


Quick guess on yours  Morden Street ?


I thought you might get it John, but not with Morden Street as that's now a very short ramp down to a block of garages! I thought the chimneys and spire in the foreground would give it away. Watts Alm House on the Rochester Maidstone Road.
Over to you.

Grandarog -  if you open up Google Maps then cut-and-paste the lat/long into the search bar (top left) it goes there.  Because Google is US based it will only accept lat/long and not the national grid.  streetmap.co.uk will work with the grid reference, but you need to remove the spaces for some strange reason!

Thank you John, It had the look of a MOD Training/Firing range. So just had to circle the establishments on Google Earth and look where the blue street view lines finished abruptly.  :)


Struggling a bit with suitable pics, so the next ones a bit different. Name any of the streets within the view or the notable establishment.
