In accordance with the UK community's vote, don’t add Microsoft building footprints in Cornwall without correcting the geometry. This can take a lot of time so you may as well just draw them by hand. Slop buildings may be deleted.

As you add agricultural landuse, please (accurately) draw in the Cornish hedges in-between the fields. This is barrier=hedge, some people add hedge=cornish but this isn't necessary.
