Thanks for response I appear to be doing it right in spite of my

Final points
- most culs-de-sac are very short 20m+
Hmm... Not sure I agree with you there. They could be any length, but
not sure what why that would make a difference in OSM
- the 'Turning circle' very rarely is circular!
I would say they were....
- usually
- a slight 'Y' shape (arms 2m long)
- a small side branch (2-3m)
...because personally I map these as 'Y' & branches...
- a general widening with 2/3 parking spaces
...& these as parking areas if there's defining markings. A bit fiddly
for some maybe, but makes it clear & accurate.
I think that this is the normal pattern for culs-de sac
(at least round Stafford)

Go to the map Main Page, click on show me the map,
Zoom & pan to the area you want. Bottom right of the map, right click on
either Permalink or Shortlink, click Save Link As (or something similar)
& paste it into an email.
