Please remove this word, it is not correct and also insulting.

There are two separate pubs named "Assheton Arms" here (osm.org/way/255314849 and osm.org/way/325726412) - presumably there's only one pub with that name.

Currently we have two addresses mapped at "15 New Street" as osm.org/way/938869024 and osm.org/way/942801387 - I suspect the former should be number 5, not 15.

There's a service road mapped here connecting Olde Englishe Road to the car park to the east. Aerial photography strongly suggests there's no service road here: I wonder if access to the car park is from Derwent Avenue to the north-east of here.

I'm fairly sure there's a footpath near here connecting Tamewater Court and Delph New Road but it's not been mapped yet

The footpath bridge across the river here was closed today and looks like it has been closed for a while.

I'm fairly sure that the cafe "Parkys Eatery" is here. Perhaps that's what "The Old Bakery" mapped as osm.org/node/1928783005 is nowadays.

This row of shops could do with a resurvey: I think Taylor Wilde at osm.org/node/3400055217 is in the right place, but don't recall what else is here or exactly where it all is.

Raglan Street is tagged as a track but it goes through an industrial estate. Aerial photos suggest it's a road, not a track, but this could do with surveying.

It looks like there might be a dirt path from Victoria Street here, perhaps leading to Hilary Road. I walked past but didn't go along the path as I'm unsure of its legal status or whether it's a dead end.

Grasscroft cant really be called a hamlet anymore. The area at the top of the hill is probably more correctly called Lydgate (as in the school & pub). The area is mainly suburban housing (much built in the 1950s) and I suppose it has several hundred houses, so place=suburb is probably more appropriate. Reference should be made to how Grotton etc are tagged. Effectively it's a suburb of Oldham even though closer to Greenfield (and historically in Yorkshire not Lancs).
