Are you having a laugh? it's no more detailed than streetmap.co.uk!


There are no houses/building etc etc, just road layouts.
Unless there's something you're not telling us.

I looked at the image for here on live a few weeks ago and it well rubbish. No detail at all and the closest zoom doesnt work (as it does on google). Even worse is the fact the image for our area of Birmingham are at least 7 years old (the diamond road markings at M6 J6 arent on the live maps, these were put down in 1999).

The pics are really old, more than 6 year old round my way because I bought the folks a milenium pic of their house and that had a new estate which isnt on these pics.

Saying that this is the closest i've been able to zoom into my area though Can see all the paths etc over the moors where I used to go riding its cool!
