I've only been once (well, I did once go to watch Reading play at Portman Road but didn't go into the town centre). I've rechecked my wife's photos, compared to Google Streetview, and you're right, it wasn't the site that Helen originally posted.

Council Y: 458.02, 534.35, 610.69, 687.02, 839.69, 992.37, 1,145.04, 1,374.05
