From the front page: "OpenStreetMap is a free editable map of the whole world. It is made by people like you." There's no paid staff here to make your corrections. Roll up your sleeves and do it yourself. It's fun. answered 03 Apr '11, 11:54  Richard ♦ |
It seems that this is the result of the Nominatim search for "Porlock Way". With many places in the world, Nominatim results include Places that seem to be not directly related with the place you are searching for. This is "normal", and you don't have to change anything on the tagging of the original place or way. Details: Nominatim ... try nominatim.openstreetmap.org to see why all that places are listet in the result. answered 02 Apr '11, 16:22  stephan75 |
