Hello again Greyseal18,

Please don’t use incompatible sources for names in OSM. It’s been pointed out a number of times, including in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/56451569 that you can’t copy names from the Sabre wiki. Please don’t do it. I’ll have to revert https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/62849932 as a result.

While a couple of the names are plausible (Bar Hill has always been referred to as that, by someone I know who used to live there) most are not (the Trinity Foot was a pub - see http://swavesey.ccan.co.uk/content/catalogue_item/the-trinity-foot-public-house-at-the-a14swavesey-junction in happier times) but I’ve never heard that name used to refer to the road junction (even that article doesn’t refer to it as that).

Best Regards,

Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM’s Data Working Group.
