Just an update about tomorrow's meeting in Scalford: Meeting time is 10:30 in the car park of the Kings Arms <http://www.kingsarms-scalford.co.uk/>(not Red Lion as I inadvertently stated originally). A (fairly current state of unmapped paths in the neighbourhood can be seen on umap <http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/ne-leics-footpath-mapping_120727#12/52.8082/-0.8629>. I'll aslo try and have some printed/laminated maps with me.
Dudley has already reserved the obvious route to Holwell & back, but there are at least 3 other alternatives towards Goadby Markwood and Waltham. The pub opens at 12 and is unlikely to be busy. I will warn them to expect 4-6 of us. We aim to join together for lunch from 12:45-14:00. Some chosen morning routes are longer than others. Waltham is the obvious target for additional mapping after lunch, but the little network of paths to the W of Holwell are unlikely to be covered by Dudley. There are also many shortish loops available between Scalford and Long Clawson. This area is I think very much the least touched area of Leicestershire. The county as a whole suffers from relatively few paths with marked designations (~ 27% of all footpaths by length), but a reasonable proportion of paths are on OSM (60-65). Regards, Jerry
