I've filed a correction for Google Maps - they eventually replied saying
'we get our information from various sources' and didn't correct the error.
I replied that 'it's still wrong, I live in the area and the map is wrong."
They changed google maps eventually. Possibly more than one local
complained. Probably the original error was in the government mapping data.
And not all 'official' mapping sources always agree either.
