Backfill: the saved starting view of North Foreland before this reconstruction. The old lighthouse was a roughly 45 m generic block with repeated house windows; the operator gives a 26 m tower height. The site also had flat-roof cottage placeholders and fragmented paths. The replacement removes the six site building placeholders, preserves neighbouring houses, and supplies the full compound. Final walking validation is still in progress.
North Foreland is now in the Unreal map: the 26 m octagonal tower, glazed lantern and optic, both keeper’s cottages, service buildings, boundary walls, fences and rear path. This is an actual Unreal detail view. Review has improved the slate roofs and chimney detailing; it also caught old path fragments showing through and a few floating foundation edges. Those are being corrected before the final walking test and 8/10 quality gate.
Broadway petrol-station corner corrected: the kerb is set back by 1.83 m (six feet), with a smaller forecourt and about 36 square metres returned to the road for a straighter junction approach. The forecourt now uses the road asphalt. Kerbs, crossings, signals, barriers and the price sign follow the revised corner. This is the saved Unreal result, checked after reopening; surrounding buildings remain first-pass models.
The revised Broadway candidate pulls the petrol-station corner back six feet and returns about 36 square metres to the carriageway. This actual Unreal preview shows the more direct approach and shared road/forecourt asphalt. Review caught a thin paving-edge seam, which has now been rebuilt; the new edge still needs its native render check before installation. Signals, barriers and the price sign have moved with the corner.

The short version
No business model
There is no premium tier, no growth target and nobody to sell this to.
A charity built it and gave it away. That is the whole plan.
Look without signing up
Browse what is happening near you without telling us who you are. No
account, no cookie wall, no algorithm deciding what you see.
Your money is not our money
Bookings and donations happen on each organisation’s own site. We
take no cut, because we never touch it.
Things and places, never people
The map shows a warm space or a food bank. It has never shown a
person, and it never will.
The one exception
HelpingHand holds money, on purpose. A tenner handed to
someone sleeping rough can be lost, nicked, or taken off them before it buys anything. So
we hold it for that person instead, and pay a hostel we have checked for a bed or a meal
they have actually had. It is never ours, and if it goes unused for seven days it goes
back to whoever gave it.
Are you an organisation?
If you run a warm space, a food bank, a repair café, a hostel — list it on
Local and it shows up on the map straight away.
Free, and it stays free.
