Careful. I was born in Mansfield.
The residential areas and suburbs of *any* town aren't places you'd
normally go unless you had to, but we do to map them. Mapping Berry Hill
or Ladybrook wouldn't be any different to mapping a suburb in any other
town in the UK.
If you were organising a Mansfield mapping party you'd need to ensure
that there was a decent venue available, but that would be the trickiest
part, I think.
