Was doing a survey around the outskirts of Thirlmere (a small town in
NSW), and came across a difficult road to survey and tag.

It's called Rays Lane
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-34.15725&lon=150.56322&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF

It has 6 gates, 3 of which are usually closed - to help control any
cattle that may be roaming about.

The middle gate

Is in-between where most of the properties / driveways are, and hasn't
been opened in what looks like a few years.
As a consequence, the asphalt road is now more of a moss + soil + fallen
tree barricade.

I've tagged that section of road that's overgrown as being: disused =
yes

Does anyone know of any better tags for this section of road?

I've some (geotagged) photos to help

Also, what's the best thing to do when you've discovered that 2 ends of
the same road have slightly different spellings on their physical road
signs?
I've tried to tag the road as best I can

Do you think it'd be best to speak with the council about this?

Thanks in advance,
Rhubarb - The guy that finds difficult roads to survey :P
