    I love google Maps, i sent hours looking at places i never went, even places i would like to go.
    I found the house, very easy as it is the only one with a red mail post in front of it... :-) a lot of houses are similar. without the post would be harder.
    Funny, in maps, the gate more in the left side is different. It should be the gate that goes directly to back garden. They change it. witch on is the older version?

    I guess your photos are recent, in google maps, you can see that stuff you put on walls for the plants to grown up. In you photos, plants are bigger and they are climbing the wals.

    I hadn't actually noticed the gate was different. We actually want to replace it with a solid one so people can't see down the sideway.

    I think you are right that the Googlemaps images are quite old, as the tarmac on the drive looks quite new and as you see the plant trellis on the walls doesn't have plants on it.

    The council also look like they are resurfacing the road this week too, so that will be good before we move in.

    Is that because of it being in Bognor?

    You looked up the street called North Bersted. My road is Greencourt Drive and that is 6 metres above sea level. With no history of flooding.

    You can't expect to be that high above sea level when living on the coast. Although, saying that our old house in Fishbourne is 8 metres above sea level according it that site! Although the flood survey we had conducted stated it was 4 metres, which I tend to believe more.
