confirmed by me
at the town "Crystal Brook" there are many places on Google which do not agree 
with the council map I downloaded for comparison
in fact it is Easter Egg Land, with Google having the same road name for at 
least 17 different streets, and the local council using ti once, and 3 of them 
copied into OSM.
