Re: [Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

In addition I think there are (wooden) platforms for churns in the same area. At least I think so, but until I find one, I cannot say for sure whether they still exist or not. On Sun, 21 Jun 2020, 15:37 Paul Allen, wrote: > On Sun, 21 Jun 2020 at 14:22, Volker Schmidt wrote: > >> My point was o

Re: [Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

My point was only that we should be carefully looking for variants of the concept, and try to make it mappable, avoiding too specialized tags. Something like "milk collection point" would comprise both if we were to distinguish active from historic ones.

Re: [Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

Update. I looked around a bit (I am a city dweller, apologies, if this is new to me) In South Tyrol (Italy) they have an interesting variant of this concept. The dairy uses refrigerated containers which are parked in designated spots at scheduled times. The nearby farmers bring their milk to the co

Re: [Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

Certainly milk churns in Australia - at least to this Older English Speaker! :-), even though TBMK they are no longer actually used. Thanks Graeme ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

To my memory, these platforms for milk "container" collection are still in active daily use at least in some parts northern Italy, and, I think, other parts of the Alps. So it is important not to make the tag "historic" only. In some parts of Germany there used to be one-per-village small building

[Tagging] Milk Churn Stands

Recently I was digging for some details of a farm I was mapping and came across a map of the locations of milk churn stands in the county of Ceredigion. It struck me that we should have a way of tagging mllk churn stands. They are platforms, usually constructed from bricks or concrete, occasional
