I saw no sign of an abandoned railway here. On the other hand, it looks to me as though the way representing that abandoned railway more accurately show the track of most of the Belmont Trail than the official line for trail.

I think the railway needs to be relegated to the open historic map, but, subject to a more careful survey, most of the Belmont trail needs re-aligning to be on top of the original course of the railway.

(I accept that this used to be a railway, but the rule is to map what is on the ground, and that railway is no longer on the ground.)

These pitches are seasonal. I think the exact location varies from year to year, and there certainly aren't two cricket pitches overlapping at the same time. They are replaced by football pitches in the Winter season.

This is not a building called "Halls of Residence"! It probably needs a more specific tagging than residential.

There is a lot of detail in recreation ground that needs capturing. Unfortunately, as it is too new for aerial imagery, it may be difficult to do it with accurate geometry unless one does some conventional surveying.

I have traced a lot of it with GPS, but the position noise is really too high for the level of detail that is needed here.

It contains a couple of landscaped mounds. There is a seating terrace and what I think is an outdoor stage (when not used as a pedestrian area) to the SE of Arc House. Arc House is either for a covered stage or for dressing rooms, etc.

There is an adult exercise machines area, table tennis table, and basket ball practice area. There is also a children's area with what I can only describe as things on springs to ride.

On a smaller scale, there are a few benches to throw in for good measure.

There are also cycle stands outside the north western entrance.

There is pavement. Should probably be mapped as a separate way

This way is also a cyclepath joining Point Place to Tokyngton Avenue.

This road is labelled private many times. As there are no physical barriers, I'd suggest access=destination best describes the intent.
