How to add a historic monument (pillory)?

0

I find no "map data pane" (as a tool tip tells me to do) to enable me to define the point as an historic pillory.

According to Taginfo, currently there are 886 objects using the tag historic=pillory. I'm not sure which editor you're using but I presume you can add this tag manually if it's not present in the "map data pane".

If appropriate, you might also add

tourism=attraction

attraction=historic

Cheers

Don't use tourism=attraction like this. attraction= is used alone for theme parks, not subordinate to tourism=attraction. Other specific feature tags are used.

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:historic=pillory is already documented to be with some significant usage. Absolutely good to use it.

iD, and other editing software won't have a preset for everything. You have to manually enter the tag at the bottom of the left panel.
