| 2 | ~ 2 months ago | closed | saintam1 ♦882 | Surveyed today and found the same. Furthermore, there’s barely any path to speak of to the south of this, you can push your way through the woods but there isn’t really a path. I’ve shortened it on the map. | |

| 3 | ~ 6 months ago | closed | saintam1 ♦882 | There are no numbers on the doors along that little stretch of road. They are garages each with a tiny granny flat above, that can be accessed through the gardens from the houses to the east. I don’t think they have their own address. | |

| 2 | ~ 9 months ago | commented | drnoble ♦3,044 | It was mapped 12 years ago, I don't remember ever seeing it recently | |
| 3 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | saintam1 ♦882 | I walked through there today and didn’t see it | |
| 4 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | jfml ♦55 | Yeah, I was actually there a few weeks back as well and could not find it. What should we do in this instance? Is there some way to make it invisible without deleting it? It's a nice part of history that it was apparently once there that I'd like to keep … | |
| 5 | ~ 8 months ago | commented | drnoble ♦3,044 | Maybe we just add a historic: prefix to the tags. Which I think is neither tagging for the renderer (as it will not be rendered), nor actively mapping historical objects, just acknowledging that it is no longer there on the ground | |
| 6 | ~ 4 months ago | closed | drnoble ♦3,044 | Have now marked this as historic, closing note | |
