Official name of the parish edit

- It'll just be a data propagation issue. The council is the source of truth on it, but suspect they're not that hot on updating third parties. I've sent off a few emails to prompt ONS and OS to talk to SBC; we'll see if the change filters through in the next few weeks. Once those two update it'll probably start to ripple through the rest of the dataverse. Patch86UK (talk) 15:12, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
