Thanks Marjan.

My money is on this spotting new housing estates. It is worth reminding
mappers to try all the aerial sources available. My first site
https://maproulette.org/challenge/37397/task/145777316 wasn't visible on
any so I marked as 'too hard/can't see'. My second site
https://maproulette.org/challenge/37397/task/145777403 has some of the
roads in Esri World Imagery.

A quick look at Google Maps aerials may confirm, but obviously we cannot
use that as a source.
