Naming of roads in London SE25Out and about filling in gaps in the road names between South Norwood and Crystal Palace. Also revisiting a few previously mapped roads to clarify the layout.
It's nice weather out there, so why not?

Bus Routes in South London
Adding these in from memory of routes I use regularly and know (and love?).
So that's the 68, 315, 249, 196.
Trying to ensure I get the complete route so there is little chance of there being two networks, starting from either end (Ugh! How nasty would that be?).

South Norwood - London
It's home, and woefully lacking in named roads, pubs, green spaces and much really.
So I'm cycling around and getting the names of everything, and spotting the odd street that hadn't been picked up from the ariel photos.
One or two places where I'm going to have to go back and verify if a few roads do link up as suggested.
There's still a lot to be done down this way though.

The Temple - London
Yet another set of twisty passages, courts and squares.
The south Side of Fleet Street, and full of lawyers.
The principal gardens and lanes had been previously marked out, but there are a lot of pathways in here linking everything together.
Again the GPS isn't always going to get a lock, so video and making paper maps is the way forward.
It's also an odd place in that nothing is a public right of way, but there is permissive access to everywhere, and remarkably tranquil compared to the bustle of Fleet Street and the Embankment bordering to the north and south.
Anyway, I think I got the lot, there is at least one square that doesn't seem to have a name, the rest is laid out even if not named yet.
There is *NO* way I'm going to list all of the the names of the chamber though.

Lost of twisty pathways (all different)
Been adding the courts and squares to the north of Fleet Street.
GPS signal doesn't work too well there, so lots of video recording tied together with locations when a good signal was available.
A tidied up what was there previously, and everything named.
