[OSM-talk] Surrey Mapping Weekend

[Etienne]

Cool.

The area east of Weybridge is pretty complete inside the M25 as far as the
A244 (Esher to Leatherhead road).  So the major towns that need to be
covered to bridge the gap are Ashtead, Leatherhead, Fetcham, Bookham and
Dorking.

Ashtead, Fetcham and Bookham are very suburban,  Leatherhead and Dorking are
more traditional towns.

Between Leatherhead and Reigate are part of the Surrey Hills (
www.surreyhills.org), a designated area of outstanding natural beauty.  The
North Downs Way and Box Hill are both in this area.

The natural (?) boundaries of this area are the A3 to the west, M25 to the
north and M23 to the east.  Roughly an area the size of Rutland, but a much
larger population.

With the leaves turning during October this is a really nice area to visit.
