I suspect that "Cambidge Street" is a typo for "Cambridge Street". Someone should check locally.

When I was there today, the Histon Barbershop and the Cambridge Building Society were separate establishments. I didn't note which one was in the wrong place, though, so it needs someone to check.

House numbers around Cranesbill Close really need to be resurveyed. Rather too many of my photos turned out fuzzy.

675912 CycleStreets

Don't remember seeing this path - needs checking.

The Fort St George bridge has been retagged as highway=footway rather than highway=cycleway. I remember explicit cycle markings on the bridge, but maybe they've been removed.

I think there might still be a hotel here, even though its entire building seems to have been deleted from OSM. Its name may have changed though: https://cambridgehotel.co.uk/

Northampton Station has a shiny new station building, which seems not to be mapped yet.

I dont think access=destination is the best way of mapping these restrictions: for instance as currently mapped horses aren't allowed. using motor_vehicle=destination may capture it better (and is also closer to the signage).

Almost all of these shop names are now incorrect.

Houses 28-23 (west to east) in this row line up with the ones on the square. See the site plan for the rest of the house numbers:
