This is, of course, a tiny fraction of the overall Lightning project.

The top image above now looks like this - each phone is a street getting cabled:

Like you say though that's a lot of new homes in one area. Impressive!

I wonder what the prospects are for small towns that were intended to be done but never were? I can think of a town that has about 8000 homes, and is linked to a neighbouring Virgin Media town with empty NYNEX ducting.

I didn't envisage Lightning adding that many homes at once, I just thought it would be a couple of hundred homes here and there.
