In case it was also a contributory factor, the two Essex boundary
relations (administrative and ceremonial) weren't closed - I've just
joined the ends together so they should be OK now. This might also
fix Cambridgeshire but I haven't checked those relations with the
relation analyser.

I have not deleted the Essex county node:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/26450045
as I wasn't sure whether the gns information was something that
first needed moving to one or both of the Essex relations.
