Re: [Talk-GB] Parish boundaries
2009/3/11 Chris Hill chillly...@yahoo.co.uk: The Church Commissioners have up-to-date information about the parish boundaries in England Wales and they have a website [1] showing parish boundaries. I have seen some parish boundaries have started to appear based on NPE maps. In many cases the boundaries have changed in the 50+ years since the NPE maps were printed - I can see this on modern OS maps but I can't, of course, use these modern data. Also note that in some places the ecclesiastical parish boundaries are disjoint from the legal parish boundaries used as bottom tier of local government. This is probably most common in Unitary Authority regions, particularly London. -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
Re: [Talk-GB] What should we do with the towns/cities section on the
Before we start are people happen with using ceremonial counties (such as Cheshire and Berkshire) at this top level? Cheshire was split into two unitaries a few weeks ago! Ceremonial counties sounds reasonable as they're unlikely to change that often unlike administrative districts - and if you start using anything too historical then what's on the ground could be difficult to equate with what's on the site. Actually you've slightly jumped the gun with Cheshire. Cheshire becomes two (four actually if you include the two that already existed which are still part of the Ceremonial county) unitaries on 1st April.
