At the risk of repeating myself ;)
The problem I'm seeing now I investigate further is not so much the 'county', 
but rather the missing 'city' and/or 'place' references.

Dumbleton, Evesham is correct ... it's 9km
Dumbleton, Tewkesbury is wrong ... it's 15km

And Smallbrook Road, Wychavon just does not make any sense at all :( Yet move 
over the boarder a few hundred meters and I get Field Lane, Willersey which IS 
correct.

All I'm trying to do here is get Nominatim and OSRM reporting the correct 
details ... but I've not found any 'rules' yet to get these reported correctly?
