IMO, this is bad mapping.
Just because one person conclude
As a public right of way, the highway exists by law - regardless of any
evidence on the ground or lack thereof.
I suggest not removing the section, but instead setting as disused:highway.
This is what I tend to do when the PROW route is clearly inaccessible from

Of course, just because *evidence* of it doesn't exist on the ground, doesn't
mean the route itself
Hi all,
Possibly not the correct place to raise this but I was wondering if anyone knew
what the plans for Potlatch 2 are?

I also note that the editor changed Rockall from “island” to “bare rock”, and
that Colin has question this: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/86624262
For what it’s worth, I suggest the correct tag for Rockall is “islet”:

Hi all,
Just to drag this back up - I encountered an unmapped showground (Chipping,
Lancashire) whilst adding PROWs and don't know the best way to tag. It appears
to hold a several large shows each year (well presumably not this year!) but
doesn't appear to be a recreational site.
I found this

acceptable (though, of course, only one should be used per PROW). They serve
the same function and can easily be crossed matched by third party services.

I have a slightly dissenting view (assuming parish means parish name).
At least in Lancashire’s case, I think the use of the numerical ID in place of
the parish name should be acceptable. The numerical parish ID is what is used
on the council’s own PROW map – as well as the open data they releas

Hi all,
I'm using the very helpful work Mapbox tiles (from Rob Nickerson's email on 11
Nov 2019) to map Lancashire's public rights of way (PROW) under the council's
open data licence.
Generally, any existing paths already marked on the map fit quite well with the
vector files of the PROWs. So
I’m fairly sure Potlach (assuming you want to tackle this via a browser editor)
allows you to delete larger areas in one go – rather than deleting point by
point.
Cheers.

Thanks both - as it currently stands the whole town green is outlined by
"boundary=protected_area & protect_class=21 & protection_title=common" (as
town_green wasn’t an option, though, I actually added
protection_title2=town_green).

I ruled it out because, from the same wiki:
"This tag is intended for (usually urban) parks with managed greenery" and
"parks not so designed and manicured, but rather left in a more wild and
natural state should not get this tag, instead, use another tag like
boundary=national_park"
Thanks.
