I think a lot of you probably saw this news story:
 
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bradford/7962212.stm
 
I thought people might be interested to see the location on Multimap, which has 
some nice "bird's eye" photos too.

Indeed, it seems TeleAtlas thinks it is a road, called "Watty Lane." According 
to the BBC, it was passable by motor vehicles 50 years ago.
 
I see that since the incident, Welshie has mapped the path concerned in OSM 
from NPE :) Great idea!

I notice the footpath is well tagged with :
 
psv: no
foot: yes
created_by: Potlatch 0.10f
highway: footway
surface: dirt
hgv: no
bus: no
source: NPE
car: no
 
hehe!

I hope that the unclassified road that has been mapped from NPE next to it is 
correct!
