    Lewes is now on Google Streetview. Can anyone spot themselves or someone they know?

    Yes. My next door neighbour is outside his house. It looks like the pictures were taken mid April last year.

    I could go with mid April maybe. Our old neighbours hadn't moved out so it has to be before about June. But the Volly had been painted up - when did that get finished? The doctors is open on School Hill so it's a weekday and I think the shadows say no more than a couple of hours either side of noon. My car isn't there, which is odd because I don't use it for work.

    I do like a good mystery.

    Aha - scoreboard at the Pan says next home game vs York on Sunday 26 April. So it's in the week / fortnight leading up to that, I guess.

    I reckon it was one day. Don't think the cars have to go particularly slowly and it wouldn't take a day to drive through every street in Lewes. The weather stays the same but you can see the changing shadows in different parts of town.
    Lewes were also at home 21st April, so my money would be on Weds 22nd April 2009, if EBM is right.

    The high street from Boots corner down to South Street doesn't appear on street view. It also stops just at the junction of Court Road. So no-one can check out the pavement situation outside Bill's !

    It doesnt appear because the street was shut and all dug up. The Googlecar couldnt get down there.

    They seem to have done the whole area. Even Barcombe's there. I can see through my windows into the kitchen. It's a little unsettling.

    Weird thing. I'm now 99% certain that East Street and Little East Street were done on different days because my old car appears on both streets.

    You should have a panel, bottom right hand side, that says 'layers'. Have you ticked the Street View box?

    I like the fact that it looks lovely and summery; it will be a pleasant pick-me-up in the depths of winter to remind us what life is like when it's warm and you can go out without wearing mountaineering gear.

    Couldn't agree more Dell. Looking at the country lanes in Barcombe I felt I'd almost forgotten how lovely a warm sunny day can be.

    If you look around Bentley Wildfowl it looks more like winter, no leaves on trees and very grey.
