I did this because my favourite pastime is taking pictures of places which are going to change in the near future. After 2 or 3 years I go back to the same place to see how much it has changed and I take the same picture and then I compare the before and after pictures to see exactly how much things have changed, the results are usually quite impressive. Many buildings are shown on both the before and after pictures even though a new road has been constructed, a good example of this is the A130 at Down House farm near Chelmsford. Other roads are featured (most in south east England). I hope you enjoy looking at my website as much as I enjoyed creating it.
