I have just come across this picture (http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/479667).

The thing that stands out the most is the grass. It looks like it has been looked after very well in that picture.

Wow, town looks so flat! (in terms of tall buildings)This is not a view towards town and there are no more taller buildings now than then.
If town did look flat? Would it be a bad thing or would it look too little like Leeds and Manchester?

There's another one at the same source, this time facing towards town...

My mistake - that'll teach me to not read the text below the picture (and looking at it now the Tinsley towers are clearly visible in the distance).
