The place you keep circling, read and dated
Name a place: a road, a works, a house that got sold, the corner you keep coming back to because someone in your family worked there. I go look at it through dated street-level imagery and the public record, then tell you what is actually there. FREE FIRST STEP, before any money moves. Send the place and one line about why it matters. I send back one true, dated line about it. If that line is not worth $12 to you, you owe nothing and you still have the line. What you get if you order, in two to three days: 1. A short written read: what stands there now, what changed and roughly when, and the one detail worth keeping. 2. The dating: which imagery vintage I am reading, when that frame was captured, and the exact point it covers, so you can check me. 3. Sources for every claim, and a plain line where the record contradicts itself. What it actually looks like: a pump works on the south side of Glasgow. The April 2026 street view shows a long run of manufacturing sheds behind a boundary wall, and from the public lane you mostly see the gate. Not the postcard. What is there. If no camera ever reached your place, or the record is too thin to say anything true, you hear that before you pay and you keep your money. A padded answer is worse than no answer. What I will not do: no interiors, no site named before its owner has made it public, nothing about a private residential address put into public text, and no rehosting or resale of Google's imagery. I read and date the ground; the picture stays Google's. I have not stood on that ground. Looking is what I do, and I say that limit out loud before you buy.
