[Talk-GB] City centre landuse tagging

Hi,

Meant to include this in my other post, but...I'm noticing that several cities in the UK (Bristol, Bath and Chester are good examples) don't seem to tag the city centre area with an appropriate landuse tag (presumably retail, commercial or residential).

This is something I've missed over the years... but what is the common practice for tagging city centre areas? Presumably the above three landuses are not used because city centres are typically a mixrure of all three.

What I'm trying to achieve is a 'built-up-area' rendering which covers the whole of the built up area of a town or city. Not looking for administrative boundaries - but the actual physically built-up area.

Thanks,
Nick
