While he continues to produce wonderfully evocative photographs like those below, deadbeat is hardly an apt description.

Matt specialises in taking shots of urban decay, in and around Lincolnshire. He has a superb collection on Flickr, under the pseudonym of magoo squared, some of which are relevant to the Metheringham area.

The first of Matt's images is of a Nissan Hut at RAF Metheringham, between Metheringham and Martin.

The next is of the Nocton Hall ruins. This once vibrant stately home was severely damaged by fire a few years ago and now sadly the ruins are all that remain. Matt has done a sterling job of capturing the essence of the Hall even in its decaying state.

Matt's website, urbandecay, seems to have acquired a few technical gremlins as it doesn't display properly in a browser. Visit his Flickr photostream to see the rest of his work.

Both maps have full interactive functionality and are linked, so that what you do in one is reflected in the other.

Aerial Imagery comparison

You don't have to stick to the Metheringham Area. If you zoom out far enough, re-centre on the place you are interested in and then zoom back in, it'll still work.

If you can work out which of the imagery sources, Google or Microsoft, is the most current, then add a comment below.
