Hi, are you sure that Skelwith (node 5615914897) is a separate hamlet from Skelwith Bridge village (node 434301526)? As a local, I suggest deleting the Skelwith hamlet node and making Skelwith Bridge the admin_centre, even though it's on the edge of the boundary.

Comment from Colin Smale
Hi, thanks for your local view. Having searched high and low for evidence of Skelwith as a separate entity, I have not found anything on old maps or similar. However I have seen photos indicating there is a sign in the sharp right bend in the A593, opposite the Skelwith parish notice board....
That is the sum total of my evidence as to the existence of Skelwith, but it is beyond doubt that the main village of Skelwith Bridge is actually in Lakes CP, despite the many claims to the contrary!
My usual test for the "Admin centre" of a parish is the location of the (parish council-run) Village Hall. Any idea where that would be for Skelwith/Bridge?Would you be able to check if that sign is still present, and suggest whether that is sufficient to conclude that "Skelwith" exists?

It's here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/256204861
Perhaps the Skelwith Bridge node can be moved across the river so that it's actually in the parish, maybe at the south end of the bridge?

Sounds like a good compromise to me... I will do it like that. Are you local enough to check for that sign anyway? It has got my curiosity going.

Yes, but I probably won't be going that way for a month or so. Thanks :)
