Very long time back, but way/59305357 is tagged with designation=bridleway. Can you remember/check if this should be designation=public_bridleway. Just going through some of the less usual values for the tag in the East Midlands.

My apologies, didnt check closely enough. Thought it was unusual?

I presume the bridleway past Stoke Bardolph (59305357) should be designation=public_bridleway? Just looking at more unusual values.

Yeah the meetings are religious ones: quite a lot of non-conformists didnt use the word church. I'll change it: would have mapped it ages ago but didnt know which building. Shame you're not mapping now: you did a great deal in a short time. If you're a walker I can recommend hunting down public rights of way: it doesnt spoil the walk too much & takes one to new places.

Shouldn't the Quaker Meeting House in Mosedale be mapped as a place of worship? You've added it as a community centre.

Thanks. BTW this changeset comment very useful. I was wondering why the lights were on when I saw it from the tram.

I wonder if the Carshalton Beeches should be promoted to a suburb with places like Carshalton-on-the-Hill as neighbourhoods. When I lived & worked around here 'Barrow Hedges catchment' was the key divide for Carshalton Beeches. The dividing line to N is a bit hard to pick out (everything S of railway should be OK, and the old Wallington & Beddington UDC boundary on East which IIRC runs up W edge of Stanley Park High School. Probably W boundary is to W of Banstead Road. So it's rather larger than just a neighbourhood.

Hi Kev,

I added a page on the wiki noting at least some of the things we need to track: osm.wiki/Nottingham/Broadmarsh_Re-development. I've just started updating some of the bus route relations from Broadmarsh: it's a big undertaking!

Rather late in the day, but Wikipedia is hardly a suitable source for OSM as has been discussed ad nauseum. One significant reason is that, aside from licensing issues, wikipedia can get it wrong. In this case this is clearly not the location of Knockeen Portal Tomb (which is incorporated in a stone wall). It is however close to the site of Gaulstown Dolmen (somewhere in the woods to the E): clue being that this is the townland of Gaulstown & there is a dolmen which much better matches descriptions of Knockeen Portal Tomb visible on Bing at the same location as the Cromlech on GSGS 3906. Note this may be valid evidence for correcting wikipedia, but not OSM.

Can you remember how you did this? Reason is that in the Bristol Channel the England/Wales boundary is not consistent with boundary of City of Bristol. See note/834912.

Will be checking it anyway as I need to look at photo to see what kind it is & whether there was a stile or gate. Dont know why this didnt autocomplete

Could you add not:name=Castle Green Road where the name is Castle Green Lane (and possibly file a correction with the Ordnance Survey via their customer services). I find they correct things quickly. Also please avoid making references to Google Maps: we cant use it as a source even to check things.

I'd strongly support DaveF here: before designation became widely used access=designated or foot=designated was often used for Public Rights of Way. This may or may not be the case here, but removal of the tag does nothing to improve OSM, and may degrade the information.

This changeset discussions provide a mechanism to ask the original editor was. This should certainly be considered in a case like this.

There's a very broad sidewalk (probably better represented as a footway under the bridge along side of the road past the chippy (which I see from photos is called Reggie's). There are gents & ladies loos under the flyover . Also there's a ticket/info office somewhere in the same area. Pavements both sides of ONEWAY road into bus station under the arches. 4 bicycle lockers etc. Perhaps I should share my photos :-)

Also the key taxon (effectively synonymous with species a lot of the time, but most useful when cultivars come into play as with many stree trees)

From memory I think it's relatively easy to roam around Stockport Bus Station. I'm afraid I probably dont have any photos. Perhaps you should visit & then you can try the delights of the Crown just across the Mersey.

Removing data is "mapping for the renderer": please don't do it. Someone took the time to transcribe the information from the plaque and enter it in OSM. This type of information is widely used elsewhere: for instance on the openplaques.org website. By removing it to make this area look the way you want it, you have also removed the possibility of anyone using it for anything.

Hi, Just noticed your edits (nice adding the stuff up behind Woodhouse Park). You dont need to add foot=yes to a bridleway, particularly one with a designation tag: it's implicit in OSM that a highway=bridleway allows pedestrians, just as a highway=cycleway does in the UK (but not everywhere). Cycling on bridleways is always a bit more complex so adding the access permission makes sense (as it does on footpaths which allow cycling but which are not true cycleways). HTH

Only just noticed all the work you've done here. It's rather nice to discover new stuff in a neglected part of town.

OK have a look at what I've done. Slightly guesswork for the Forlease Road junction. I've slightly changed the alignment of Stafferton Link further S.
