Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
The arcade would not be the whole of this large residential building. Thus I've made it a POI node and placed that POI up the street within the outline of Temple Brew House where I think it should be.

Regards Bernard.

Highways don't need a postcode.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

The house would not be situated in the middle of and joined to the highway. I've made it a node beside the highway. You can move it to the appropriate position.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I've removed the fiction you added to OSM.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

There is works access through the gate, so the access tag would be private rather than no.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I've tweaked the tags of these features to reflect OSM requirements and best practice.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

With access on foot, cycle, horse and motor vehicle being allowed, it cannot be that access is by permission. With the rest of Brewer Way being residential I would assume this short section would also be residential. Thus I've the access restriction.

Fiction removed.

Hi, The HA PRoW reference isn't the formal name for these footpaths. As far as I'm aware very few footpaths have formal or local names.

Hi, The highways were ok before your modifications which disconnected several highways, resulting in the warnings given above. It might be best to revert this changeset. Need help please just ask.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

The buildings look better when squared up. In the iD editor highlight/select the building, right click on the outline, click the square icon from the menu, shortcut Q.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

The AED needs to be more precisely positioned for folk to find it from an OSM map. OSM data can be correct to within 1 metre. The Big Yellow storage facility is the other side of Holman Road from this AED placement. I would think it would be fixed to the wall. Could you please reposition the AED? I can help if you tell me exactly where it should be.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, The names seem more like descriptions of the features. The use of the level tag is incorrect. Some features are untagged. The outline Way: edision block (354741132) has very unusual tags. Thus I would suggest this changeset be reverted. You can then learn a bit more about editing OSM and especially editing with the complex JOSM editor.

My attention was initially drawn to the steps area in the SE corner. Where highways are duplicated one atop another. They have the tag level_name=0, what does this mean?

There are many guides and videos to help with JOSM. Need any help please just ask.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, This building is number 52 as originally tagged. The dentist state they are number 52b which I presume would be only part of that building, hence the POI for it within the building outline.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Thanks for responding so quickly. I've reverted everything back to the original state. So there's nothing to worry about now.

There are other editors lOSM, where changes/additions can be made to the OSM data and saved without uploading.

Regards Bernard.

Hi there and welcome.

The two highways you've added Way: Appendix 5 Mapping (1421503234) and Way: 1421503235, that join to several other features, cannot in any way be seen as highways nor would they be seen as highway areas. Thus to avoid confusion to routing I've removed the highway tags. The lines are left untagged for now in case there is a reason for their mapping. This is done in Changeset: 170293753.

If theres no response the linescan later be removed. Need any help please just ask.

Regards Bernard.

Hi Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

The building is number 52. Your building doesn't occupy the whole building. You dragged out of position a street and some traffic lights.

I've made the necessary corrections to repair the highway. I've made the business a POI within the building.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I don't think the pickup point would be inside the building as you've positioned it. As per:- amenity=taxi, it should be at the point where taxis wait. Could you please correct the position.

Regards Bernard.

Hi Richard, I can see that image and I've added a service entrance to OSM to give you a start. Please check for it's correct location, I've also squared up the building.

As for contributing to OSM, from experience I'd say first decide if your mapping will be occasional editing for which the iD editor will be OK, you've already used it. Or more serious dedicated mapping that might need a more comprehensive editing tool like JOSM. You can of course use both. But JOSM is by far superior though there is much more to learn.

Please feel free to ask any questions. You can directly message a mapper by clicking on their name, as shown above, like mine.

Need help just ask, Regards Bernard.

Hi, Yes this was first mapped to record the line of the old railway in 2020. In 2025 someone added the cycleway tag to many sections, most being correct but as we see not all. I've removed the cycleway tag from the section you pointed out between the bridges of Blackbrook Farm and Forest Lane.

Please let me know if any other changes need to be made. There is a dispute about one section used as a public path for years:- https://www.charnwood.gov.uk/pages/community_value_asset_jubilee_walk_in_shepshed Don't know if that's been resolved.

Regards Bernard.
