Holme Pierrepont

Sett inn af msg_uk 9. maí 2009 á English.

Just corrected the spelling of Holme Pierrepont, on the village name itself and on the name of the Water Sports Centre.

Forgive me if I'm missing something obvious, but I can't seem to add a comment to my 'history' entries when editing in Potlatch. Any help appreciated.

No through road

This was my first attempt at editing Open Streetmap. I created a GPS trace and used it to plot Orford Avenue, Whitworth Drive, Vicarage Lane, Lime Close, Maple Close, Beech Close, Sycamore Close and Willow Close.

I'm not fully au fait with cartography yet, but I think this was a pretty good first attempt at the basics.

One thing I'd like to know, though, is this. Although Vicarage Lane is a continuous road, it is a 'no through road'. There are bollards at approximately the location indicated against this diary entry, meaning that although pedestrians and cyclists can pass through, cars cannot. (Most GPS systems wrongly treat Vicarage Lane as a through road.)

What is the best way of showing this on the map? If someone more experienced would like to do the necessary edits, I'd be most grateful.

Thanks.
