Looking through some past tagging mistakes using osmose, it looks like I mapped a node node/403015257 7 years ago! with name=Texaco here.

I just deleted that tag because it was on the corner node of a building (a duplicating bug introduced since actually) . But I won't set the name back on the building because, chances are it's changed from texaco to something else since then. survey needed

Came across this because we've had a photo of it on the OSM wiki for a long time. It has been used as an example of "mall" on one proposal. Incorrectly really. I would actually call this a "retail park", not a mall.

Anyway for the tagging, one thing which definitely seems wrong, is repeating the same tags across all the different buildings. Just as with schools and hospitals which have lots of buildings, we should have an outer area, perhaps including the car-parks, with some of the tags on it.

I think I would do it as an outer way with: landuse=retail + name=Dalton Park + website=http://www.dalton-park.co.uk (and yeah maybe not shop=mall ... not sure) Then just building=yes on the inside ways.

What d'you think?

this end house added from imagery, but maybe that means the addressing wrong

Set to become a co-op I think:

If someone local wants to check on this in a few months, that'd be great.

CromonMS didn't reply to this: changeset/21144907 Tempted to delete, since its not a bricks n mortar company. No evidence on the ground (at least I don't remember anything there)

I'm fixing landuse while quite zoomed out. Definately a bit course in this area. Should be refined a bit more

Just looking at bus routes around here, and talking to someone who recalls taking buses here.

The bus 42 relation here. Looks suspicious. Very narrow road. Should that be going around Bridge Lane instead?
