Ah sorry, I shall remove it then Robert. I have drawn it freehand based on what I'd seen on their site as a right of way. Presumably then, if there's no established path, I can never add it to OSM because the definitive map is my only source for this information. Even if I walk it and use my GPS recording, the source of the path is ultimately the definitive map? How does that work?
