An alternative would be to use the council's own code, and then in another tag (or in a relation, see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/Is_In) indicating which county it is in. But that seems a roundabout way of doing it, harder both to use and to map. __John _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
