SolutionHi @MansoorI,
Once you click on a marker in Maps, there is a link saying "Suggest an edit". Click on that and you can drag the marker to its correct place (or tap to the correct place on a mobile). Then submit your edit.
This misplacement can happen when a place is added only by the address given (and the marker is not placed to the correct location manually). Google - most of the times - "estimates" the location of an address (based on certain factors we need not go into the details of which here) and addresses are usually placed along the road, not onto the buildings.

Hi - Just read your help that you have offered but I have an additional problem . The Telford Langley School, Telford, UK is starred as being located in a lake in about a mile from its actual location! When I have tried to update its location it is not listed as an option when you click on the available options. Present location at
The Telford Langley School

It used to be called 'The Phoenix School' and was rebuilt two years ago on a location at the southern end of Dawley High Street with an associated Phoenix Sports centre which correctly positioned.
The correct position is about plus code -
9C4VMG7P+6F
Hope this can be solved - any help /suggestion most welcome Thanks
