Comment from Chris Fleming
Hi Dan, I would just like to start by welcoming you to OpenStreetMap - from your comment, it sounds like this is a private road, therefore should it be tagged as private rather than deleted?
Thanks CHris

Hi Chris,
It's my private driveway that's shared with 2 of my neighbours, there's no reason for it to be mapped. No other driveways on the development are.
Thanks
Dan

Also neither Google or Bing map it.

Thanks Dan - I will try and get over there and have a look. We try and be better than Google Maps.

I think I mapped this section originally, and at the time I didn't realise it was a private drive. As Chris says, we try and map the world as it exists on the ground, including access rights where these are known. It is quite easy to add that this is a private section.
I appreciate your concerns Dan with this being the only private drive mapped on the development. It would be great if you could contribute your local knowledge and help to map this area in more detail. There are other areas of Edinburgh which every driveway has been mapped (e.g. Oaklands Square in Brromhouse, https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/55.92782/-3.27572), and most of the central area now has every garden mapped, so I hope tis shows this is not targeting you specifically.

No worries, and on reflection there are pros to it being mapped and marked as private too....
Will try and update the map as the development is finished around us. I have some site layouts that could be scanned and over laid to help
