Thats ok.. I spent hours trailing through it last night.. Going to take a look at it again today, If you put in Street names in the search box it comes up with all the photos of that street. I now know what Oxford Street in Rugby looks like,were my rellies lived for many years. Sue x

Have just had a look at this site. It's brilliant - so good that even my husband who is 'not interested' came and had a look. Definitely one for the favourites Sheila

Now I'm on the home computer, I can add this one to my Bookmarks collection. - Nearly forgot! By the way, this doesn't have the GR-suppression-triggers, so no need for brackets. http://www.windowsonwarwickshire.org.uk/ Christine
