I should probably add that is is likely that the course of the road drifted over time and that up until WW2 this section of the A49 was a minor road which was upgraded as a bypass.

Thank you for these updates, it does seem much more believable and there are references to the Roman Road on OS Opendata.
I would suggest that the route was not through Prees village but followed a straight line from the present junction with the B5065 via Prees Church which forms a straight line with the straight section of the A49 to the north.
At Mostyn the link would most likely have been via the old A49 alignment which is now marked on OSM as a track and would form a straight(ish) line though a natural gap linking your two sections together.
Sorry if you took my reference to armchair mapping as an insult, it was not intended to be personal.

Hi, I'm not sure what this shop is. But it is certainly not a department store. Please do not mistag.

Fiction reverted

The middle of a residential road is a very unlikely place for a viewpoint, I am reverting this edit.

Hi, welcome to OSM.
Cherry Hinton Campsite is already mapped, so I am removing your duplication.

The North Shropshire section appears to be pure fiction, the Roman Road is only shown on your claimed source in very short sections. Where did the rest come from?
It is very unlikely that the Roman road followed the present roads through Shawbury.
I do not have a usable source but I do know it did not follow the modern A49 alignment between Lee Brockhurst and Prees, a route that would not have been possible before the invention of dynamite.
Splitting modern roads to facilitate this dubious unverifiable information makes mapping more difficult for local mappers who actually go out and survey their local area.

Hi, what is the source of this information?
I have never seen any evidence for the existence of a Roman Road and find it highly unlikely that it followed the modern alignment of the A49 between Weston and Prees.
Also this type of information is more appropriate in OpenHistoricalMap rather then OSM.

Don't worry about changing the existing ones, not sure if that is even possible. I was just jokingly making you aware so you would fix it next time you edit.

Wow, the A14 is being extended to North Wales?

Hi, welcome to OSM
Rapid Welding is an unlikely name for a hardware shop. What are you trying to map.
Maps.me is a very basic editor, to do more than basics you need to use a proper editor such as iD on osm.org.

Hi, welcome to OSM. Thank you for your edit, the park was already mapped so I have removed your duplication and put the name onto the existing area.

Hi, way way/387927974 appears to be total fantasy. There is no separate way visible on bing or mapbox imagery. Also many entry exit nodes are shared which causes exit counts to be wrong, i.e. you have to enter a roundabout to leave it. Oneway on a roundabout is not needed, junction=roundabout is sufficient.

Hi, this looks very small and an odd place for a hospital. What were you trying to achieve

30451635 almost 9 years ago

Hi, I got some odd instructions from maps.me for this roundabout today. Now I am home and able to check I see that for some strange reason you removed the roundabout tags and replaced it with oneway. Why?

Hi, welcome to OSM. Please remember that osm is a live database, please do not usr it for tests. I am removing this doodle.

Hi, thank you for adding these footpaths, however they should not end where the gate/stile is, they need to connect to the road otherwise routers will see them as dead ends and not use them.
I have connected the footpaths to the roads.
Cheers Phil

The definition of a mini-roundabout is not necessarily painted white, but it needs to be traversable. At least one in Oakengates is cobblestones.
This one is very definitely a mini-roundabout, and painted white, so I have corrected it.
