Finding New Locations for Maps

We are nearly at 2000 members of our Facebook Group, can I make a request, please visit one of the maps for an area you know well and find what is missing?

I need to find Visitor Mooring, Chandleries, Boat Yards, Water and Pump Out points, Pubs, Restaurants, Cafes, and any place of interest you would recommend. If each of us found 1 extra place that would double what we have already 🙂

See https://floydtilla.co.uk/canal-river-maps/

Don’t forget we also have the everything map https://floydtilla.co.uk/they-everything-map/ were you can find all the place we have so far, but it loads a little slower.

Thanks

October’s 2023 Canal Map Updates

During October we added over 300 new places to our maps, a lot of work goes into making sure we do not duplicate current locations, as many have more that one name depending on who is writing about it so it is hard process to automate.

Everything map

October was made up of roughly

1 – Art Gallery
5 – Cocktail Bars
103 – Pubs/Bars
41 – Coffee Shops/Cafes
5 – Fast food Restaurants
2 – Ice cream Shops
36 – Mooring Locations
3 – Workshops/Repair
3 – Fish Restaurants
73 – Restaurants
13 – Boater Services Points
11 – Visitor Mooring Points

The requirement for these is that they are within easy reach of the canal/river network. During November we hope to reach a total of over 2000 locations mapped in total
