Changeset When Comment

Can you please use more descriptive changeset descriptions than ‘recent local info’. Doing so makes it easier for other contributors to see what your changeset does, out of the list of recent changesets. Thanks.

When was it re-routed? Are these Mapillary images still relevant? https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=54.39510819999998&lng=-2.9230128000000377&z=17&pKey=tFVjjGT7imBo538aI65P_Q&focus=photo

Sounds like the cycle lane needs to be reinstated on the A591 (but not as part of the NCN6 relation). I’d probably do it as a separate cycleway way since it diverges from the road a bit by Brockholes, and that would keep it consistent with the cycleway between Ings and Windermere.

For the moment, this is all left as a fixme tag on the remaining bit of cycleway, so I don’t forget about it.

The cycle path (non-segregated pavement on the west side) on the A591 needs some work still. Needs a re-survey to work out which bits are cycle path and which bits are foot-only, and whether any of it is NCN6 any more. Probably best to move it into a separate way and set sidewalk=separate on the A591.

building=house is a bit more specific than building=residential, so you could use that to impart a bit more information. See: building=residential

I fixed the courtyard building near the bypass to use a multipolygon relation here: changeset/53177905

See osm.wiki/Relation:multipolygon

Thanks for the updates; these look like good contributions. However, can you please provide more descriptive edit comments than ‘Update’? For example, ‘Add more buildings and fences to White Lund industrial area’. That allows other people to easily see what each changeset does, at a glance. Thanks.

That seems reasonable!

Hi, I think tagging the houses’ gardens with leisure=garden is not quite correct, since that implies they’re public gardens (like a park), not private ones. I looked into how to tag individual house plots a while ago, and concluded that it wasn’t worthwhile: it takes a lot of effort, and the results confuse rendering and other consumers of the data. The best solution I came up with was to explicitly put in any relevant fence lines to indicate which roads the houses are accessed via.

Wow, nice work!

Nice. #CumbriaRoads work?

Nice one!

Hmm, this is a tricky one to tag. I think the tags as they currently stand – fee=no maxstay=2h – are the most appropriate I can come up with. They are correct, in that the first 2h are free. If people choose to park there, they should see the big signs explaining what this Frog Permit system is, and realise they can potentially extend their stay.

What do you two think?

pamman, please do add descriptions to your changes in future to give rationale to other editors for your changes. (Or at least a summary so when we’re looking at the list of edits, we can see quickly what each edit is.) Thanks.

From a private message from pamman:

> With reference to Mill Yard, Staveley the intention was to make users aware that parking can no longer be regarded as free. During weekdays the first 2 hours are free after that a “Frog Permit” is required, apparently if you are not a frog you’re . . . . . . toad and nobody likes to be towed! so a “Frog permit” must be obtained from the business being visited. Weekends still remain free.

Thanks for the information. I agree that the name Jakey Tanners should be in the map, but I don’t think it should be the canonical name of the road. The canonical name according to the modern naming databases (the OS Location database and the Royal Mail address database) is Brigsteer Road. As lakedistrict says, this is a good candidate for the loc_name tag. Do you want to re-edit the map and add loc_name=Jakey Tanners? You could also add the source:loc_name tag with a brief description of where the name’s sourced from, to prevent future confusion.

Thanks, I didn’t have time to do a proper survey of the north end of the development.

15006292 over 8 years ago

Indeed. I was also wondering whether Jakey Tanners is the name of the track to the SE just E of the A591 bridge.

15006292 over 8 years ago

There are no road signs calling it Jakey Tanners. There are some references to a road called Jakey Tanners in the Kendal Oral History Group records, but no details online. I’m going to revert this back to Brigsteer Road. pamman, please reply with some source information if you think that stretch of road is actually called Jakey Tanners.

What’s a frog permit? Without a changeset description, this looks like vandalism.

Please add a description to your changesets so others can easily know what you changed. Thanks.

Hi, if you’re adding terraced/semi-detached houses, you need to join their vertices together so the areas are joined (since each pair of houses shares a wall). You should also use the ‘s’ key in the ID editor to square up the walls of the houses.
