The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The road on the left is Vicar Lane. Church Street was one of the roads chosen for the route of the Sheffield Supertram system in the city centre. Although there are shops in this area, the route studiously avoids the prime shopping area. There have been various suggestions for extending the system and some of these involve threading a line through the main shopping area. To date all of these proposals have come to nothing, as the present Government does not seem prepared to contribute any money. All Sheffield is definitely getting is four new trams and these are unlikely to arrive in the immediate future.
