Interesting,i live in Gillingham and your video was very informative, thanks for creating and posting!The last bit about chalk pit /rubbish pit- well this is good area to let your dog off and has a council funded bmx track.
Anglo saxon name Gillingham, translated House of the shouting Men, or latin, Domus Clamantuim. Anglo Saxons settled in Kent and they named their settlement Gillingham, one of the Anglo Saxon warriors carried a flag with a white horse on it (odin), Invicta means Unconquered, Even the buses use Invicta.
Thank you 🙏 for the historic lesson on Gillingham. I remember the date plates you referred to. I can’t believe I work for Portland Cable Trams. So I found the Tram history I appreciated 🙏that’s how I remember The Strand 🤣🤣🐨🐨🦘
Loved every second of it thankyou sir
I used to live there in the early/mid 1970’s and loved it.. I look back with many fond memories.. left when I was 14. Used to earn £1 a week doing a 7 day a week paper round.. Now on the other side of the world.
Amazing job! Nicely done!
Amazing. Waghorn's statue with no traffic cone on it.

Does anyone know what website was used for the maps?
In the old picture I noticed the street light before you mentioned it. In Braintree and Bocking, there are a surprising number of Stanton 9 lampposts remaining on older residential roads. Almost all were "sleeved" in the late 80s. Most of them had the 9D bracket, and a few the 9A swan neck. If you look at Woodfield Road and St. Mary's Road, Braintree on Streetview, you can see a few Stanton lampposts with their original 9D brackets and GEC "fat Albert" lanterns. Eleco lampposts must be rare now. Most concrete Group Bs I see are CU.
im using this website on my phone, do i need a laptop so i can look at the old photos because i dont know how? can you help?🙏
Interresting video, I often use these sort of maps to find out about the year of construction of buildings. In The Netherlands some of data is publicly available and is incorporated in certain GIS datasets. However, sometimes the data in the official BAG dataset is incorrect. But what happened with the audio? It was clipping in the beginning, it sounded like it was recorded with a too hot input signal.
