I can see my house from here

In addition to the usual maps, Multimap.com now offers aerial photographs.  I'm not sure what practical purpose they serve, and image resolution is poor (deliberately - they sell high-res images, but don't give 'em away!), but just for interest, I've compared my home area of Lancaster, NW England, UK to the village where I grew up, Northop Hall (Pentre Môch), NE Wales, UK.  I found it interesting, anyway, though it mightn't mean much to those unfamiliar with the places.
