Great shot though I am struggling to see what part of Wightman this is.

The first road on the left is Warham (sorry a bit difficult to see - it's just where the 'n' and 'g' of the watermark are). One of those houses on the right should be very familiar to you! Use the 'View Full Size' button.

Yes, I did wonder but couldn't make out Warham - still struggling to see which one is mine though!

On Google maps, your house is, I think, 8 houses down from the houses without turrets. On the old photo (viewing at full size), counting the little spurs on the roof turrets, and starting from the same marker as I did on Google, yours would, I think, be the third from the right with the venetian blinds down a bit skew-whiff.

Thanks Hugh - I am quite excited as none of the previous photos of Wightman have shown our house.

And here is the same view in 2016 when Wightman was lovely and peaceful due to the replacement bridge works
