Iain has written to point out that Google Earth now offers 3D buildings for Milton. Just visit Milton and make sure you’ve got the “3D Buildings” layers selected. It’s really very cool.

For the benefit of those of you without access to Google Earth (and it really is worth getting, it’s free) we’ve made this little video.

It starts at Tesco so you can see the 3D effect on their clock tower before heading north over The Rowans and up the high street, pausing at the White Horse, to end surveying North Lodge Park. It then comes back south to All Saints’ and ends at the post office on Coles Road.

By the way, if you do have Google Earth then check out our World War II photo overlay. For more details see the last paragraph of Milton in World War II.
