missing pubs around Covent Garden

Posted by Harry Wood on 24 February 2009 in English.

Noted down a few missing pubs around Covent Garden while I was wondering around there last night. Just now I added them, and also straightened out some obviously wonky streets (live rendered view) It seems like the area's hardly been touched since ye olde London Mapping party of Jan 2007. We need to figure out a way of organising a second pass on all central London areas. How to see which bits are "done" though? That's always the problem.

I'd think there's a fair amount of work to be done in the area, given that the Punch & Judy is missing in Covent Garden itself (a pub I've avoided for years because I like to: a) sit down; b) hear what people are saying; and c) get served in less than a light-year), as is the Inigo Jones church opposite. A couple of other quick thoughts: the gardens of Lincoln's Inn Fields are incorrectly labelled. The Sir John Soane Museum, the Royal College of Surgeons and Cancer Research labs are all missing around Lincoln's Inn Fields, as are the historic buildings of Lincoln's Inn. All of these are important aspects of the fabric of London, and probably a bit less ephemeral than pubs these days (a reason why I'm reluctant to add stuff in places I haven't cased out recently).
