Anyone know of a good example of National Trust property mapped in detail?


I'm preparing a presentation for the National Trust Scotland about OpenStreetMap.


Cheers,

> Quick summary:
>  
> '4.20 Instead [of using local newspapers], authorities would be under a
> general duty to publicise their orders in whatever they consider to be
> the most appropriate way. We propose to supplement this general duty
> with some non-statutory guidance setting out options available for
> publicising TOs, and identifying where each method would be appropriate.
> This would also encourage the use of innovative communication channels
> which already exist, and those which may evolve in the future. 
> 
> 4.21 We anticipate that traffic authorities will welcome the
> recommendation to use on-line publicity for their TOs. We would see this
> being used as a way of conveying the full details of the TO, which could
> be 'sign-posted' from other sources. With that in mind, we will propose
> a format for on-line advertising of TOs alongside the guidance with the
> intention of increasing the consistency of how TOs are advertised
> on-line.'
> 
> Having been a member of the DfT's Traffic Signs Policy Review, which led
> to this consultation, I'm meeting officials on Thursday morning (Feb
> 2nd) for a discussion and would be interested in any views how new
> guidance and a new format could best fit with open data principles.
