Do Jordan Hill and Lakeside constitute neighbourhoods in their own right? Property sites seem to think so.

Suburb node "Cutteslowe" node/14191310 within suburb relation "North Oxford" relation/13046270 (which has a proper label node of its own). The hierarchy's gone a little odd if that's happening.

Idk if North Oxford should encompass Oxford North. Should Wolvercote contain Wolvercote Cemetary?

Perhaps Summertown, Sunnymead, and Cutteslowe should be promoted to suburbs (ideally if we can figure out the boundaries - Cutteslowe should be easy, given its history)

Or should Cutteslowe be downgraded to an OSM quarter?

There are two buildings that have been named "Bush House" in OSM here:
* way/958402647
* way/958622161

Both are tagged as detached houses. One has a defib mapped suggesting it's a parish council office rather than a house. Presumably there aren't two Bush Houses here, but which one is correct?

Address interpolations cannot run along the outside of a building, and these addresses will not work correctly. These need an interpolation way instead, leading from somewhere near the main entrance to "inside", away from the main entrance to convey corect meaning, if we can't go inside and find where all the corridors and staircases really are :)

Separate stairway-exclusive address ranges work similarly, if there's an external door to the siaircase.

See Cooper House and Marina House for how it's supposed to be done. Since these are street addresses, not flat addresses, the house name is unneccessary for the address. The only alternatives is addr:place and addr:parentstreet, but that's very counterintuitive. It is sufficient if all the addresses as interpolated are within the building outline.

addr:housename has the same level of meaning as addr:housenumber. It is not subordinate.
