(not quite) Round the Wrekin

On Sunday I had an equestrian vaulting demonstration near Shifnal. The location I was given was Wyke, near Telford. It's not far wrong, as Shifnal is near Telford. However, there is a Wyke and The Wyke just about 10 miles apart.

Searching Wyke, Telford on Goooooogle maps (and even Multimap) returns Wyke near Ironbridge. Which is where I went. By taxi. £14 later, I was in Wyke, near Telford. I soon learnt, by asking one of the locals, there was a riding centre at The Wyke, near Shifnal. Another expensive taxi ride later, I was there.

I finally arrived just in time (5 minutes to spare, enough to get changed and do a quick warm-up). The demo went very well.

OpenStreetMap would, of course, have returned (had they been in the database at the time) both Wyke and The Wyke for a search on Wyke, Telford. One point where I think we (will) have quite a useful feature above what Google does.
