[Talk-GB] Geofabrik request: Tyne and Wear

[Nick Whitelegg]

I thought it was the former county of Cleveland, existent between the early 70s and mid 90s or so (which appears to be non-ceremonial) that was split between Durham and North Yorks; with Tyne and Wear split across the historic (pre-1970ish) borders of the counties of Northumberland and Durham.

If the overlap is around Stockton on Tees, the bit of north Yorkshire is correct. The ceremonial county of Tyne and Wear is split across County Durham and North Yorks. This is a unique situation... As the original request was based on the ceremonial County, it would be better to include this area.

Afraid I cannot reply in the language, but I've added Durham and Tyne
and Wear now. At the same time I've shaved a little bit off North
Yorkshire which for reasons I cannot fathom had overlapped with Durham a
little bit. Let me know if anything is wrong!

 Hello Frederik,



 Could I make a request for an additional region within England on geofabrik?



 It's Tyne and Wear, a former metropolitan county covering Newcastle and
 the surrounding area - similar in status to former metropolitan counties
 of South  and West Yorkshire, Greater Manchester and Merseyside.


 Thanks,

 Nick
