You wipe your cursor across the photo from left to right to see how the
scene looks today and wipe it back again.

Thank you Bob. Fascinating.
How much has changed but a lotis still the same. What amazed me was
the inclusion of Moreton-in-Marsh among war photos.


Surprised me too, Pam. I'd have thought it too far from the coast to be
doing much but I suppose everywhere prepared for possible invasion. It
was a very frightening time, waiting for the unknown to happen.
