Google's Street View comes to Kent

People can now take a virtual walk down Gravesham’s roads, as Google Street View has become available for the county’s highways.

Before today, the online resource only covered 25 cities in the UK, but it has now been rolled out across the whole country.

Street View provides 360 degree road-level images, so you can snoop around an area without even visiting it.

The pictures are captured by cameras mounted on cars, which take snapshots every few metres.

Google says it has gone to great lengths to safeguard privacy, but concerns can be raised using the “report a problem” tool on the website.

Have you spotted yourself on Google Street View? If you are concerned about how you were caught on camera, phone the newsdesk 01474 564 327 or e-mail gravesendmessenger@thekmgroup.co.uk.
