Didsbury on Google Street View

Google Street View Didsbury

After several months of the Manchester Street View images ending in Fallowfield, Google has advanced along Wilmslow Rd to Didsbury.

The coverage is far from complete at the moment and not only ends at the Shell petrol station in Didsbury, but also only covers Wilmslow Road, School Lane, Barlow Moor Rd, Kingsway, Parrs Wood Road, Burton Road and a few small side roads. No Lapwing Lane and no Fog Lane yet to name two main roads which are missing.

The remaining streets of Didsbury will be added over the coming months.
