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 church building formerly housing the St Mary's Church of England congregation remains as a significant landmark. However, it is now in the process of being turned into apartments. This has taken a very long time (several years) and the building remains unoccupied to date. The foreground shows houses along Rook Street in Hulme, Manchester. In the background are tower blocks which are not in Manchester at all, but Old Trafford!
