Thanks both - as it currently stands the whole town green is outlined by
"boundary=protected_area & protect_class=21 & protection_title=common" (as
town_green wasn’t an option, though, I actually added
protection_title2=town_green).
In the past the term urban commons was widely used in the ecological
literature for all sorts of (mainly) grassy spaces in towns. If one wanted
a catch-all designation this might be suitable, although I think it would
be perhaps better used to replace the usages of landuse=grass &
leisure=common

What I would do with these is to separate the legal status from the
physical and usage
I've spotted some edits using this, such as:

After a ropey start, in general I've been quite impressed by Amazon's
edits, but this one looks quite ropey, the service road drawn in is very
ropey and it looks like you've missed the connection

Indeed, that’s why this is not a traditional village green - otherwise I would
have used that tag ;-).

Thanks.
Thanks, I’d ruled out village green because of the Wiki description: “a
distinctive area of grassy public land in a village centre”. This is not that.
In fact using that tag in that way is listed under “incorrect use”.
But maybe the legal status overrules the Wiki description!

What is wrong with Park?
From the wiki: "A park is an area of open space for recreational use,
usually designed and in semi-natural state with grassy areas, trees and
bushes. Parks are usually urban"

Considering that it is legally and functionally the same as a Village
Green, I would say use the same tag i.e. landuse=village_green. It may
be *called* a town green because it belongs to a settlement that is a
town (who decides that is a whole other discussion) and/or has a Town
Council (which

So, will I have to quote a 20-digit alpha-numeric code, if I want to order
