I got lost in the old aerial photos on "Britain From Above" when those first went online and needed identifying. I also found photos of the homes of my Greatx3 grandparents, in a cityscape largely unchanged from their time in the 1860s until late 20th century road developments.

This archive is going to be awesome for and geography nerds.
