Default How long ago were pics taken on Local.live.com?

Looking at this after the other thread as i only use google which is miles out of date i spotted this



Thats Houghton Main Colliery. The actually colliery is gone on this pic but only just as some of the buildings are still there and all the colliery site is still there. This was knocked down in 94, then opencast then redeveloped by about 96.....so this pics must be 95 ish...HOW OUT OF DATE?

Google doesnt show the above image, its all green. But looking at other parts i reckon google is about 6 years out up here....

Just looking at other areas now local live must be over 10 years easily
