Before Steve's council estate theorem gets totally established as a 
meme, it isn't universally true. I'd been happily mapping council 
estates in some detail (including named blocks etc) but feel quite 
resentful at mapping roads labelled 'private' with big gates on to keep 
out the plebs at all. In fact in the beginning I deliberately wasn't 
mapping them, till I found the holes they left confusing...
