[Talk-GB] Misaligned Cadastral Parcels in OSMUK layer?

[Timothy Noname]

I'm pretty sure I've seen large scale redevelopments of old council estates
combine land parcels so they can be split up again.
The council estates were subject to right to buy purchases over the years,
so had many parcels of land which were then compulsory purchased and the
entire estate was knocked down and replaced with twice the number of
matchbox houses.
It would be chaos if they never allowed this parcels to be combined, the
estate would look like shattered glass, but all I can see now is neat
parcels around the new houses.
