ab350z Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Used this on US maps before but now some of the UK cities are available, brilliant!! Go to Google Maps and drag the little man figure at the top of the zoom bar onto the map, streets you can view highlighted in blue. Some bits are off limits, this is as close to Buck Palace as it goes http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=buckingham+palace,+london&sll=51.545588,-0.133724&sspn=0.037151,0.076904&ie=UTF8&ll=51.501076,-0.137994&spn=0,359.97262&z=16&layer=c&cbll=51.50022,-0.140962&panoid=OBCKdxLiFIf3JqaiT3KUdA&cbp=12,8.539909179662023,,0,5.111152317510076 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stepdad is the local park keeper in Macc, and he was over the moon when i showed him you could see him mowing the bowling greens when google maps first came out! He just looks like a black dot in the middle of a field, but it could only have been him! Am gutted they havent done this new view in Macc yet.
