Following my posting in another thread 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/osmand/NbtDTVBvmxc/1hiacLQJBQAJ>, you can 
find my simplified GPX files for rights of way in East & West Sussex, 
Brighton & Hove, and Co. Durham here:

For UK Rights of Way, another way to go is to make GPX files. RoW data for 
> most counties is freely available, and there's an excellent guide here:

> Using JOSM (maybe also QGIS if you go to the original source and discover 
> it is WFS or something peculiar) you can export as GPX. What I then do is 
> use GPSBabel's "crosstrack" simplification method with an error bound of 5m 
> to reduce the file size (actually I use the program "Viking" which is a 
> friendly front-end to GPSBabel and select filter>compress). All the tools I 
> have mentioned are free.

> county. On my old phone I have GPX RoW files for the three counties I visit 
> most without any trouble.
