No problem with Diapason taking up the baton, just shows that GSV is getting a tad out of date in the less traveled areas. Our house is shown with a young spindly walnut tree in the garden. It’s now as tall as the house. The wasteland to the side has been a productive veg patch for many years, so only too aware of its limitations.


Keep calm and carry on  :)

We need Grandarog to confirm it.  The GSV you're showing is from 2009, a decade ago.  The building works have been completed long since.  I was there last summer and the GSV is definitely out of date.  I remember the level path shown on G's view with the ramp descending towards Green Porch Close.  Holy Trinity is immediately behind the camera.

Very curious, I get plain gates and a work in progress behind them.


Me too!   ;D

I didn’t find them either, probably looking in the wrong place. Location please :)

If they're the ones I think they are, GSV is from 2009.  The narrow crush on the left is a bit of a pain to get through in a mobility scooter.  Just possible, just.

I searched around that country park and I couldn't find a set of gates like that.  Were they fitted later than the GSV views?
