[Talk-GB] Nottingham Pub Meeting tonight 19:30 Lincolnshire Poacher

[SK53]

Sorry for being a bit late with this reminder: have not been near enough a
screen.

Usual arrangements EXCEPT meeting point (18:30) for mapping will be corner
of Brook Street & Gedling Street
 (outside Notts WT
HQ, and opposite Sneinton Market). The aim is to capitalise on all the
mapping Alex Kemp has done over the last few weeks and try and get as much
detail for the Stonebridge area (bounded by St Matthias Road, Carlton Road,
Bath Street and Beacon Hill Road. Most of the area has been re-developed
and Bing imagery is out-of-date.

I quite agree. I've just mapped two near me (one in an old phone box, one
affixed to the wall of a shop).

I suspect there are far more out there than would be apparent from the map:
