View Lymm at street level

Google has expanded its Street View feature to cover 96% of the roads in the UK. From today, British users of the virtual mapping service will be able to view 360 degree images of 238,000 miles of public road and thoroughfares, from Cornwall to the Shetlands.

Integration with Lymm.com

We have already integrated this feature into Lymm.com! You can see it in action when viewing the following sections:

How it works

St Wilfrids Church in Grappenhall is a great example of this new functionality in action. When viewing a map, simply look underneath to see the Street View. You can navigate by double clicking, or clicking and dragging on the Street View. Alternatively click once the map above to move to a new location - all the roads in blue are covered by Google Street View.
