Putteridge Bury is marked as a "school" but no it's not, it's part of the uni (they also market it as a venue) https://www.beds.ac.uk/putteridgebury can someone tag this most suitably?

According to websites with local info this is inactive, in the wall of the old manor, and retained for historical significance. It should be tagged so that it doesn't render as an ACTIVE postbox but I'm stuffed if I can think how to do it without tripping the validator. Remove?

Named Incorrectly, called Tops Musgrove, part of Tops Day Nurseries.

Perhaps better to call it Tops Day Nurseries - Tops Musgrove?

Quarry closed due to the 2008 financial crash and more recent (2015) overheads than Bing indicate that the plant and a lot of the sidings have been ripped out/dismantled. Could do with a local mappers comprehensive walk-by to update the detail (quarry land itself is still private, however).

Is it a road to a field or a forest? highway=track does not mean "unpaved road", to mark road as unpaved use surface tag

I have tagged this junction as "give way" as this is how locals treat it and it is a dashed "give way" marking that is painted on the road. The accompanying roadsigns are "stop" signs (failing to stop is a £50 fine, or was when I took my test. Plus three penalty points).

However, the "stop" signs are the old 1960s style round signs and not the modern solid red octagonal signs.

I am inclined to go with the road marking as it is more recent and leave it as "give way." Views...?
