Exploring Stanmore

Catkins

Catkins planned and carried out a route around Stanmore using Google Maps. We looked at the features we could see on the map and then searched for these during our walk. We found a tree that was 99 years old and spotted lots of Autumnal change around Stanmore. We then retraced our steps using Google Street view.
