Thanks Etienne - that's a useful pointer. I'll have to look at the
documentation more closely ...
 
Since there's definitely no street there, I'll ruthlessly delete it
anyway :-) and look at the other streets round there more carefully.
 
Regards

The REST API has a history qualifier which should show its complete edit
history.  This is what it gives for the segment and the two nodes that
it's attached to:

</osm>
Created in June last year, not touched since.  If only we knew the alias
of the contributor and could find other edits made by the same person
then we would be able to make a better judgement.  But I'd say this is
ripe for deletion.

Under a very strict regime anything that is not supported by a tracklog,
or does not have an attributed souce, would be a candidate for deletion
;-)

	Yes, I've just found another segment, 65453, (crossing West-East
from
	Southampton Row, Central London) which again is both a bogus
path, and
	also not supported by even the most charitable interpretation of
the
	underlying GPS tracks. From the low number, (recent segments are
in the 
	range 9.2 million) it's one of the very first segments. Can
someone with
	access to the database deduce any more about this segment and
who/when
	it was created?

	I have no idea, but before deleting such objects, you could note
their
	ID numbers and see if they were present in the April, May or
July dumps
	of planet.osm .
