Hi Robin Thanks for that. I've been thinking about this and maybe it's because the name lookup works by searching for the nearest available region and is finding that the Black Country is the nearest - pehaps the only one - in the UK? I'm wondering that region as a tag in the place name hierarchy is only for official postal and/or admin regions and perhaps it would be better to delete the node.<div>

<div>Many apologies, Brian. I only meant it was daft for someone to claim that
Oxfordshire is part of it! Indeed I went to primary school almost in it

<div>The Black Country is definitely not a daft region! It's a well known region
of the Midlands with a rich industrial legacy encompassing
Wolverhampton,Dudley,Sandwell and Walsall and I've surveyed about 50% of it. As
agreed by the West Midlands mappers a region tag has been placed as a node in
Tipton which is roughly central. How the tags are getting mixed up I do
not know</div>
<div>I agree that Midlands is not an appropriate tag as a region</div>
