[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Listed Bdgs map on Mapbox

[Rob Nickerson]

More heads does indeed make for faster learning, and I would certainly be
interested in this idea. As for the blue plaques, I agree that a picture of
the person (or even the building) would be more personal than an image of
the plaque itself. I guess we might be able to find some photos on
wikipedia - do you have a to-do list / folder where I can upload images?

p.s. An application went in to demolish a locally listed building in
Coventry just the other day!!
