Google Zooms in on Darwen Streets with Street View

Web giant Google has now extended its Street View to include areas of Darwen!

Internet users can now view panoramic images of local houses, pubs & shops etc from a ground level perspective.

Street View launched under some criticism although they've been allowed to go ahead despite some security concerns reported by worried individuals. To protect people's privacy car number plates and faces have been blurred and they also offer a 'report a problem' area if you see anything inappropriate.

Previously, only the larger towns and cities were able to zoom into Street View level but Darwen has recently been added following mapping by the special Google car during the back end of last Summer.
