I can't help but think this changeset is misguided for a number of reasons.
However I'm nowhere near Brighton so not really in a position to verify
other than from memory and some armchair detective work.

To wit: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/59687846

So, two ways: "Bartholomews" and "Avenue" or just one: "Bartholomews
Avenue"?

>From what I can tell, "Bartholomews Avenue" is actually a mapping error
from some 20th Century editions of printed maps (not 19th as the user
claims), which *hasn't* been carried through to any other sources. I don't
see why we should repeat that mistake.

Brighton & Hove City Council have these streets as "Bartholomews" and
"Avenue", as do Royal Mail, and they are signed on the ground as such
(including signwriting on shopfronts)!

Can someone in downtown Brighton double-check all this? I suspect a
reversion is on the cards...

I've only noticed because I remarked on "Avenue" when I was last there two
years ago.and took a photo of it :)
