Stonecot Hill is now one of the many places to feature on Open Street Map. The site aims to let people work together to draw a street map of the whole world. Anyone can use the map, whether they just want to find out where they’re going or incorporate it in their own projects.
Like Wikipedia, anyone can edit Open Street Map. So as the local coverage was quite sparse I took the opportunity to add in the names of many of the roads, place the Woodstock pub and St Cecilia’s and Emmanuel churches and draw in some roads which weren’t already there.
You can see the full map by clicking on the image above. Anyone can contribute, so if you’ve got the time and the inclination and want to add in your road or place anything on the map from post boxes to cash machines, you can get started editing here.
We’ve launched a new way for you to keep an eye on the traffic wardens and TfL towaway trucks and stay up to date with the latest news about local parking.
Stonecot Parking is a news feed on the Twitter website where we’ll be posting short updates when wardens are spotted or there’s any other parking news.
Twitter is designed for short, instant messages and there are many ways you can read these updates:
- On the web
- Get updates delivered to you by email by entering your address into the form below, but please note that emails are sent only once per day so if you want real-time updates please choose another way of subscribing.
We’ll do our best to keep this up to date but there’s no guarantee, so don’t blame us if you get ticketed or towed.
