Recent updates by me to old_name

way/211047915/history consolidating old_name:2 old_name:3 etc. into old_name

way/59309823/history ensuring old_name includes many old names for vacant premises

World wide office = estate_agent (77205) is used more frequently than shop = estate_agent (4228) but that does not prove that it is correct, just more popular.

144920829

I (and most UK mappers) have always used shop=travel_agent 1860 rather than office = travel_agent 87 (some of the offices might be corporate headquarters)

Office seems to be more common for lawyer (2963 : 8), architect (532 : 2) and estate_agent (9351 : 924)

Most common values (shop or office) match the iD defaults but are not necessarily correct (I think office for lawyer and architect is correct and has overwhelming popularity)

In Derby all estate agents are currently mapped as offices, in Nottingham both values are in use with no obvious split high street vs business park

Probably needs a wider discussion than just this Wem changeset

changeset/145034889 confirmed that Specsavers audiology is a separate unit from specsavers optometry with Bhavi Beauty inbetween. Fixme removed.

I've always (six years) used office = estate_agent in Derby way/127068258 based mainly on the values defaulting from the iD editor; similar to office = lawyer or office = architect even if on the high street

I've not edited any estate agents outside of the Derby/Nottingham (and surrounding bits of Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire/East Staffordshire) area and am open to guidance or correction if another way of tagging becomes the standard (and if iD presets are updated)

No objection to deleting old_fhrs:id values (many will have been left by me over the last five years)

In the Amber Valley borough council area where they were allocated 3 character fhrs:id values there is a tendency to re-use old values (rather than jump to new 7 character ones) even if there is a complete change of use of a building; elsewhere new values are issued upon management/ownership change even if the name and use stays exactly the same

Where IDs get reactivated after a short closure then leaving the old_fhrs:id makes editing fractionally easier way/328274893 when they reopen but elsewhere where there are multiple ";" separated old values way/55082687 then this probably adds no value and your housekeeping and #maproulette task makes total sense.

You will probably find hundreds or even thousands of examples in the Nottingham/Derby area
Where somewhere is open under a new name (as Courtlands is) then I'm OK with the proposed housekeeping
Where somewhere is still vacant then the old_name is very useful and I would not tidy way/59309823 or way/130642604 as the old name shows on https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#22/52.92318/-1.47900 which does not look at history

12 looks to be correct. The accidental paste was in changeset/143479568 before my changeset but I still should have corrected
Is correct now

143801660

The Broadway address and DE22 1AU post code was correct before this change. DE1 3TQ Mansfield Road was for way/30250973 1500 metres away where the school relocated to after a fire here

143544753

There is a restaurant on the ground floor level 0 and a Shisha lounge on level 1. May have the same shape in 2D but one is above the other. Seemed reasonable to have both mapped. Will be other examples like this.

Official statement from the Real Brewing Company

It is with regret that we must announce The Clubhouse is to closed with immediate effect as a result of Real Brewing Pub Company entering administration.
The brewery will not be affected, our sister sites The Hole in the Wall & NOTSA will also continue under Derby Brewing ownership
It has been an extremely challenging trading environment over the last couple of years, including the pandemic, increased loan burdens on the back of this, ongoing recruitment challenges, soaring interest rates, supplier cost increases, cost of living crisis resulting in reduced trade and huge increases in the cost base with uncapped energy contracts. In spite of these challenges we had a plan in place to continue to steer through this however the business has HMRC arrears predominantly from the pandemic, like many in the industry, the HMRC had been working with us however this recently changed and the debt was demanded to be paid back within a short period, which meant the we could no longer continue to trade.
We are at least pleased that staff members will all be paid and we wish them all the best for the future and we would like to thank our customers for their custom over the years.

Thank you for correcting. My eyesight is not good enough for me to easily use Vespucci, on my phone, whilst walking past a shop and I could not tell the difference between ; and :
