Thanks

Hi David

Are you talking about this type of shape?

If so yards on properties and farms.

This can be found in the Legend.


Cheers

There is also an online Legend from the Online Mapping system it points to this:



The scale on the image is a little small but solid little squares are buildings, empty squares are yards but these may also not be square more a solid blank line around a yard area.

I think you would be referring to the buildings marker however, have a look around a city and you will see lots of them, that will confirm it as a building point.
