Hi
Off on a slight tangent.
There's been an increase (world wide) in the use of place=farm. If you
fill out the boxes on this site you'll see: http://taghistory.raifer.tech/
Over 19k are in GB: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org.uk/tags/place=farm
The reason for the increase could be it being displayed in the OSM carto
rendering
Just one example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4364588497
I believe many, if not all, are misinterpretations & should be
landuse=farmyard.
The wiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Farm says "a place named by
a name of a farm"
To me, that means a collection of houses not associated with the farm
being collectively given the name of that farm, so in effect, a hamlet
has been named, say, Manor Farm.
Is that a common occurrence? I know of no such in my locale.

Today saw us pass the 1,000 total for farmyards added during this
project(1008 to be precise).
Well done to everyone who has participated. What has been the most
unusual farm name anyone has come across?
Only a couple of weeks left - time to start thinking about our next
quarterly project, while we see how many more farmyards we can add.
Regards
Brian
