He's roughly editing at my southern limit as well. I mapped all but the very 
central part of Leek, and most of the east side if Biddulph until I managed 
to pop a spoke in one of my wheels. I took a bit of time to get it fixed, 
and in the intervening period, darren39 has filled in the remaining parts. 
The road names look to agree with StreetView in the main, but the road 
alignments looked like complete guesses. Originally, Cheadle, Staffs was the 
same, but he's gone back and re-aligned all of the roads, and it now seems 
to agree with Streetview.

I had a go at fixing part of the west-side of Biddulph with StreetView some 
time back, but it probably needs another visit with a GPS I think.
