Maybe map the post as a short wall then! With a central node for the post box.
I suppose the question is how would someone find these types of posts/post boxes, and having to search post_box:type=wall get ways that node is in see if way is barrier=wall check length of wall is less than 3m, is a bit too harsh. But I think you're needing to describe the housing not the postbox. Is a really generic key like site_type=purpose_built or site_type=brick_post the right idea? -- Gregory o...@livingwithdragons.com http://www.livingwithdragons.com
