Are the BEV scenes always in the default direction (usually facing North)?

I'm guessing this is in Great Britain?

Good job, J.

By the way, Antony House was already in the database:

Antony House
© Google Maps


The grounds were landscaped by Georgian garden designer Humphry Repton and include the formal garden with the "National Collection of Day Lilies". [i.e. Hemerocallis]

Antony House is to be the setting for the new Disney film production of Alice in Wonderland, from the famous children's book by Lewis Carroll. The director is Tim Burton and Johnny Depp will play the part of the Mad Hatter, while newcomer Mia Wasikowska will take the leading role of Alice. The film is due for release in cinema in 2010.

Next one will be up in a few hours.

Well I found this with no knowledge of any of the clues. I searched for major movies to be filmed in the UK and got nothing. I searched for Hemerocallidaceae and got nothing, until I searched the defenition and then found Hemerocallis. I then googled "where is Hemerocallis in the UK" and with the results I went to http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/plants/plantprofile_daylily.shtml
Looking at the first page of this site I scrolled down and it says where to see them. I then searched the first option "National Collections of Hemerocallis" in google maps and BINGO! There it is. Winner.

I was Googling down the daylily line too, but I actually had to work a few hours this afternoon.

Congrats, J.
