First, thanks everyone for checking the import. I've made some improvements 
regarding addresses, and I removed the "operator" tag. You can see the 
improvements on the same map. I'd like to join Richard in a search for a review 
tool, which would allow people from UK to participate.

Seeing that there are possibly ~2% of wrong postcodes, should they be removed 
from the import? Is there a database that I can check these against?

Andy, thanks for the explanations regarding the Markham Vale.

Brian, thanks for supporting this.

That is not the reason not to fix things. I live and Russia and have seen many 
issues with speed limits: 60 kph on 12-lane highways being the most common 
example. This is fixed not by ignoring the issue and appealing to extremes, but 
by changing the limit or the road. For now it seems that the better an import 
is described, the more people understand it, the harder it is to please 
everyone. Obfuscating it, e.g. presenting a raw json and a few Shell stations 
with better tagging in my case, looks to be the more productive option — and 
it's okay if in three years somebody finds a few wrong tags. (Not that I'd do 
it, of course.)

Philip, the shell.co.uk website gives the same opening hours for the Branting 
Hill station as the source dataset. Basically, everything in the dataset is the 
same, except for locations, which have been improved by the Navads team.
