Essex seems to be coming up in lots of place searches in the London area in
Nominatim - we've just had a bug report about it. This problem seems to
have started a few weeks ago, I think. However, I'm not confident enough
with data editing to fix this - could someone take a look?

Shaun has said to me:
http://open.mapquestapi.com/nominatim/v1/search.php?q=greenwich,+london
and click details which gives:
http://open.mapquestapi.com/nominatim/v1/details.php?place_id=151927
You will see that the node:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/26450045
is mentioned in bold, which means that it is taken into account and used.
I think there will be a polygon for Essex, thus the above node can simply
be deleted. This is the case in a lot of similar cases, as more exact
data is now available."
but this sounds a bit scary to me, especially as the Essex node seems to be
quite well-established. I can't see how it is affecting Greenwich, and I
can't see that "London" is being included for Greenwich.
Would someone kindly be able to have a look at this?
