According to the esteemed reference, the university in the middle of Trent Park, North London, is Staffordshire University. Having worked there and indeed run round it many times, I know this is a lie. It is, in fact Middlesex UNiversity. Staffordshire is 140 miles away...
Anyway, I notified TeleAtlas who do the maps for Google. But not before I'd pointed out their error to everyone I know.
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=trent+park&sll=51.659752,-0.129948&sspn=0.017304,0.037422&ie=UTF8&radius=0.8&rq=1&ev=zi&ll=51.666806,-0.129948&spn=0.017301,0.037422&z=15&iwloc=B
They do a lot of that.
Dodgy namings of suburbs and whatnot.
When I enter my address into google the pointer shows up on the house across the street from mine, instead of directly on my house... morons.
It's always off by a block or so around here.

When I do mine, I get Jaron's house. :(
After the way you Brits treated their camera cars, I wouldn't blame Google for taking their time correcting the error.
