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.
I remember putting Ridge Road on the map, one of my earlier contributions to OSM!
Good to see continued expansion of sutton.
