I was unaware I still had the country wrong for some places, I thought I'd found and fixed all these. Recalculating the street now produces the right result (as you can see if you re-do your search) so I'll do another forced update and try and get the last of these problems fixed. > Also note that in the FAQ page of nominatim, the suggestion is done to fix > errors by adding addr: or is_in: tags. I feel you are rather miss-quoting the FAQ: If a street or higher level feature (city, town, county, etc.) has the wrong address you can either add a is_in tag to provide an explicit address or, *preferably, draw a polygon or create an admin boundary relation for the feature that should contain it*. note the second half of the sentence! -- Brian
