| 5141581 Category: Unknown | 1 | ~ 5 months ago | opened | jayaddison ♦267 | Similar to the neighbouring Theatre Royal, the Playhouse also has two FHRS identifiers. I stopped into the ticket office to ask about on-site eateries, and The Boards is part of the Playhouse building in an upstairs area -- I think this is therefore the non-bar-related FHRS ID of the two. There is a separate bar in the main building from the main entrance, and I think that that must be the FHRS ID for the eatery with the word bar in the name. |
| 2 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | Taking another look at this, it still seems non-obvious. I think there are three places where food could be bought in the building: Little Picardy, which has a recent rating that mentions pizza, The Boards pizza restaurant, which I understand to be a separate part of the building (but perhaps shares the same kitchen?), and then the bar -- which I haven't visited and so I don't know whether it offers prepared food or only snacks/prepackaged food. | |
| 3 | ~ 4 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Little Picardy is a separate bar, it has its own entrance. You can go there without going to a show. There are multiple bars inside the building that you can only get to when a show is on, and if you have tickets. Personally I don’t think they are worth mapping separately. Not sure about food, but they serve wine and beer by the glass, that alone probably means they require an FHRS rating. What isn't clear to me (not having been to either) is whether "The Boards" and the pizza restaurant, "Pizza al Teatro”, are the same place or not. I haven’t been to Little Picardy. It’s possible that you can order pizza there that comes from the same kitchen as Pizza al Teatro, which would explain why they have one FHRS rating. | |
| 4 | ~ 4 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Should we just add https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/102243 and https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/522873 to the amenity=theatre? (With a semicolon) Then when one of us visits The Boards we can find out about its relationship to Pizza al Teatro (an alt_name possibly?) and Little Picardy. (https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/1727350) | |
| 5 | ~ 3 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | I've now added the two FHRS IDs to the Playhouse itself (the theatre). This just leaves the question what to do with the FHRS ID for "Pizza al Teatro / Little Picardy": we don't currently have Pizza Al Teatro mapped. My feeling is Pizza Al Teatro and The Boards are the same place, and share an FHRS ID with Little Picardy. It should be easy to confirm this by going in and checking the menu. | |

I think up to the junction with the bridge it's just paint? Need to check #surveyme |
| 2 | ~ 7 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | From a (beginner-level) survey - it does look like it would be possible for a cyclist to turn right from Waverley Bridge northbound onto this cycleway in the direction of Princes Street eastbound -- with a small caution that there is a small island/divider between cycleway and main roadway just before the cyclist would pass the pedestrian crossing. Perhaps mapping that divider would help to clarify the routing to join the cycleway from the bridge, and the layout of the lanes. | |
| 3 | ~ 7 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | I did not think to check for any no-right-turn signs on Waverley Bridge facing towards Princes Street. Perhaps a right-turn there is prohibited. Ref also: https://drscottarthur.scot/2024/05/02/jenners-and-waverley-bridge-update/ | |

| 3 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | The note says: POI types: building-address So I think the user left this note on the address node (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3208861701) It doesn't make much sense to me to say this has been removed. So I think the note can probably just be resolved? Or #surveyme to find out what's going on | |
| 4 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | empowermint ♦1 | Hello! I am the user who reported this. The POI that doesn’t exist is the address node. The coffee shop next door at 274 Leith Walk extends into the space OSM indicates is 4 Balfour St. The door for number 4 physically exists, but it has been blocked off and its number removed. | |
| 5 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | I think there could be various ways to indicate this - I'm thinking of setting entrance=no on the node, based on the related quote from the wiki: "It looks like an entrance, i.e. there is a door and possibly a housenumber displayed here, but it cannot be used to access the building (e.g. the door is permanently sealed). " From: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:entrance | |
| 6 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | empowermint ♦1 | Yes, seems like it would make sense to update it to an address node for 274 Leith Walk with `entrance=no` | |
| 7 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | I would keep the old address info but we can prefix it with disused: The 274 Leith Walk address really belongs to the entrance on the corner (not currently mapped) | |
| 8 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Oh it is actually mapped, just obscured by the coffee symbol: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3206504852 | |
| 9 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | Adding disused to the housenumber field would leave a node with city, country and street - I wonder if some software might faultily interpret that as a point node describing a street? | |
| 10 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | I meant adding disused to all address fields. It effectively represents a disused address | |
| 11 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | That makes sense to me. I've added the entrance=no tag so far -- I think setting all the addr fields disused seems sensible, so I'll go ahead and do that too. | |

| 3 | ~ 7 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Thanks! Both Starbucks and BHF give their addresses as The Cube (47 and 43a Leith Street, respectively) so I wonder if the name should be applied to the whole building | |
| 4 | ~ 7 months ago | commented | jayaddison ♦267 | I think that The Cube is currently the name for the entire building, and is when it was constructed.

| 2 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | That would be fitting: historically, when Leith and Edinburgh were separate, it was on the boundary. When the two had different licensing laws, one side of the pub would close earlier and people had to move over to the other side. But an EH7 postcode would need to go with a Crighton Place address, the EH6 postcode is the only one that makes sense for a Leith Walk address. Therefore I'm inclined to agree with FHRS here... | |
| 3 | ~ 5 months ago | commented | GinaroZ ♦7,865 | Royal Mail lists it as EH6 8SE https://www.royalmail.com/find-a-postcode (though strangely they don't have a 381, maybe that needs removed as I can't see another door) | |

| 3 | ~ 6 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | There is no cycle lane in the direction of traffic. Contraflow cycling is allowed but the infrastructure is very patchy. For most of the length of this street it's a painted on cycle lane but there are sections where it's protected by bollards (mapped elsewhere in Edinburgh as cycleway=track) and bits where it gets interrupted by parking bays so cyclists share space with cars (cycleway=shared_lane). If you want to map this accurately, you have to split the road the way it's been done with London Road. Is this what you are planning to do Simon? | |

| 2 | ~ 1 year ago | commented | CycleStreets ♦328 | For clarity, the current access tagging is: access=no foot=yes https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/757048819 So at present this indicates cycle users are expected to walk. This presumably relates to the tram works but I am not sure how far advanced these are. | |
| 3 | ~ 1 year ago | commented | drnoble ♦3,096 | The road is signed as no entry except trams, so I don't think cycling is allowed on this section, or the section with the foot of the walk stop. Perhaps the tagging could be updated to clarify this | |
| 4 | ~ 6 months ago | closed | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | After the tram works completed I walked the whole length of Constitution Street and took pictures to update the access tagging. The access=no tagging was intentional, as it's only open to pedestrians (so it's overridden by foot=yes). No cycling is allowed here. A cycle route is being built along Henderson Street and should soon open officially. I've added a note to say cycling is not allowed here to prevent any confusion. | |

| 4 | ~ 7 months ago | commented | fitigued ♦1 | I live nearby so I could do that although from recollection it's in a fenced/walled off area so entry might not be possible. Also from recollection the cemetery is tiny (thinking back 30 years it was something like a dozen gravestones) so might a spot mark rather than a perimeter be more suitable (asking because I am new to OSM surveying)? | |

| 2 | ~ 1 year ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | I was here today and checked. Technically it is not, there isn't any special signage. In practice it is. Since Lawnmarket has been dug up to re-lay the setts and Johnston Terrace is one way, there is currently no way of legally driving a car here. (That hasn't prevented a dozen or so cars that are parked on the Esplanade, not sure if they have a special permit) We could wait until the construction work on Lawnmarket is finished and then see what the situation is? | |
| 3 | ~ 1 year ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Once the work on Lawnmarket is finished, the Council is planning to make this a part time pedestrian and cycle zone, with vehicle access only allowed in the less busy periods of the day. https://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/public-transport/lawnmarket-restricting-vehicle-access/2 | |

| 3 | ~ 11 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Since it's pedestrianised now, and won't reopen after the festival period except at night, I have changed it to highway=pedestrian. I have also downgraded Johnston Terrace and Spittal Street to reflect that this is no longer a through route. Keeping the note open to remember to check and update this area again when the permanent layout is in place (the conditional restrictions will need updating, and Upper Bow also needs checking) | |
| 4 | ~ 10 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Roadworks here are scheduled to complete around the end of October, that would be a good time for a survey to see what the permanent set up looks like (also for the lanes and access tags on Johnston Terrace) | |

| 2 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | drnoble ♦3,096 | This is part of the Argyle House development, along with the other block to the south.

| 5030530 Category: Unknown | 1 | ~ 8 months ago | opened | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Is Rannoch Smokery still here? It was last edited 12 years ago, and the website https://www.rannochsmokery.co.uk/ gives an address in Dumfriesshire. |
| 5029082 Category: Unknown | 1 | ~ 8 months ago | opened | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | The addresses here are given as 1-8 The Guildry, but there is no street with that name mapped. Is The Guildry the name of a street (maybe https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/228935886?) or the name of the building? |
| 2 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | GinaroZ ♦7,865 | It's probably just the building unless there's a street sign, though either works tbh. However the addr:city should be Blackness rather than the place or suburb like you've added here https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3721722927 | |
| 3 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | osmuser63783 ♦1,299 | Thanks! If it's a street name we should add it as name tag to a street, if it's not a street name then we should use addr:substreet or addr:place instead of addr:street... (I'm systematically going through addresses which have both addr:place and addr:street which is always wrong) For addr:city, the guide I am using says that should always be the post town - which I think in this case is Linlithgow? | |
| 4 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | GinaroZ ♦7,865 | Yeah I saw that guide and have seen talk-gb/forum comments a while ago, wasn't really sure about it but didn't get round to making any objections! For example there's only 13 post towns in Fife and 113 towns/villages, would be a bit strange for all Dalgety Bay addresses to have their addr:city as Dunfermline - and then what would be the addr tag for Dalgety Bay? Maybe I'm wrong but I've just used addr:city for a distinct town/village, because I guess if someone wanted to come along later to add the post town they could do so while retaining the town/village info. | |

There are quite a few gates mapped along Digevej (https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/2bQf). Having cycled up and down parts of this, I am not sure if any of them still exist.
