Telling Stories using Google Maps

So you want to find directions to a somewhere or take a look at a place, where do you look? Quite often you'll go on Google Maps, what else would you use it for! Well, how about using it to tell a story.

For one of our assignments we were given a location in Liverpool and we had to use Google maps to tell a story across 5 locations. These locations could be anywhere in the world but we had to start off at our Liverpool location. Our location was the Anglican Cathedral. We decided to find out who the architect was and then see if they had designed any more notable buildings. It turns out that he, Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, has a whole list of buildings to his name - even the red phone box. As a group we picked 4 of the other projects that Scott had been involved with and then created diary entries related to each of our choices. In the diary entries we have put Scott's thoughts and feelings from the time which he was working on each of the projects.
