Hi Sue

This is an aerial photo http://tinyurl.com/6yvfs4

You can zoom out or change to "Map view" if you wish.  (the arrow is not pointing to any particular house). Obviously the road wasn't built when the "Streetmap" version was done.
Don't cry because its over. Smile because it happened.

According to my year old streetmap of Boston there is no Poppy close but there is a poplar close, off wyberton west road.
