Hi

Do people reside & sleep in the park or nursery?
If 'no' then is it really residential?

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dresidential

As the database becomes more detailed/accurate the "granularity" gets 
smaller. Entities like 'residential' will have less blanket coverage, 
items will be individually tagged Which is what you note in another of 
your posts:
"And the address of the nursery also includes "Queen's Park Court": "
So the cover-all named residential area becomes redundant.

Regarding the nursery I'd redraw the residential around it, map it's 
boundary fence as amenity=kindergarten, transfer all the address data to 
that polygon & tag the building with building=kindergarten. This is how 
the vast majority of the schools were tagged in the recent GB quarterly 
project.

Cheers
