OSM Coverage

This map includes the City of Brighton and Hove and Shoreham-by-Sea.

The natural boundaries of this conurbation are the sea to the South, the Downs to the East (to Falmer Rd, and including Woodingdean), Downs to the North (the A27 effectively), and River Adur on the West.

We started from the Brighton core and extended out in each direction. A while ago it was stated that we were "within days of completing Brighton and Hove proper"... so I guess maybe we're there.
