Coordinate error

[edit]

{{geodata-check}}

The following coordinate fixes are needed for

E,N=338961,402543


157.203.254.2 (talk) 16:13, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I can't interpret the figures you've given above, but they appear to be neither decimal degrees, degrees/minutes/seconds, nor Ordnance Survey National Grid references. I've emended the coordinates of the station to the best of my ability; if you still think that there is an error, you'll need to explain yourself more clearly.

@Deor: See Ordnance Survey National Grid#All-numeric grid references. Clearly 338961,402543 becomes SD 38961 02543, or, to 100 metres, SD389025. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:21, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Redrose64: The grid reference SD 38961 02543 seems to match the coordinates that were in the article before this report, so why would the OP be reporting an error? It still seems to me that my coordinate emendation is closer to the actual location of the station. If you have better information, please let me know or emend the coordinates yourself.
