Hi Wideford,

Thank you for pointing out those errors, we've moved some of the sites, but not others. A few of those west of Kirkwall have been left as part of West Mainland as we arbitrarily decided to use Junction Road as the boundary between East and West Mainland. Not for any reason other than it more or less fits with the division between the OS Explorer maps, whilst this might not be administratively correct in terms of the relevant Parishes, we think it makes things easier for visitors who will probably be using the OS maps. Some further fine tuning might take place to make sure this pattern is closely adhered to.

For similar reasons, we're reluctant to create any further subdivisions of either East or West Mainland.

Thanks again,

The TMA Eds
