Online maps and GPS use WGS84 datum whereas OS uses OSGB36 datum *pupdated 1936) - difference can be several hundred metres Online maps use the WGS84 datum whereas the OS uses the OSGB36 datum. The datum is a model that adjusts for the fact that the Earth is an ellipsoid rather than a true sphere. It means that latitude/longitude coordinates can be several hundred metres different. GPS signals use the WGS84 datum, and it makes sense for online mappers to comply, but OSGB36 is well established for the small area of Great Britain (Ireland has its own datum and grid system). The OS updated its datum in 1936, and it will have taken time for the revisions to feed through.
