Comment from SK53
I'm not at all sure the Strategic Investment boundary belongs in OpenStreetMap. It certainly is not an administrative area in the common meaning of the usage of boundary=administrative, so a different tag should be used.
Also it's not clear that the linked document is a suitable source for OSM data.

Thanks for the feedback, SK53. As you can see it's one of my first edits!
I asked around and read the wiki and found it hard to establish what *should* belong in OpenStreetMap. I'll remove the boundary=administrative tag - do you think I should remove the feature altogether?
Agreed that a PDF isn't a great source. I'll see if I can improve that.

Certainly remove the administrative value for boundary. Perhaps replace it with boundary=planning_area for now. Administraive boundaries get pulled into notional addresses which is how I noticed it in the first place.
In general stuff like this is not a great deal of use in OSM. Even if you have a specific need for the boundary its often easier to put this in a umap instance.
One aspect that this edit did highlight is that I dont know that we have any good way to denote city centre areas in OSM.
There's plenty of stuff which can be added in Liverpool. Had hoped to do a bit myself last year, but only got as far as a couple of pubs on London Road behind the Empire.
