A named beach on Christchurch’s shore, at Te Onepoto Taylors Mistake, as the open map records it.
8 listed places within 300m of the pin, each opens its own record from this page.
The pin is OpenStreetMap’s own position for the beach, the beach’s own ground, or its centreline’s middle. Neighbours on the register are near it, not the same record.
The record behind this
The position and the names are OpenStreetMap’s, a named beach or island inside the city boundary (ODbL). The dual names are recorded as the map carries them; a pin is the mapper’s position, not a surveyed mark.
