You could use a cherry picker to position the scanner at different elevations and positions

Here is the one I did earlier - Summer 1985

And here it is Summer 2011 on Google maps. It's the big Oak, just to the left of the light coloured ornamental tree

In the UK a "Close" is a street name suffix such as avenue, street etc. but typically refers to a dead end street.
Hope this helps . .
