The circumstances under which the East Riding of Yorkshire data was provided to rowmaps are set out here:
http://www.rowmaps.com/datasets/EY/ I've no reason to mistrust Barry's account. But there is obviously a provenance issue for other users if the Council as copyright holder has not confirmed the licensing publicly. This is a case by case problem, as the OGL status of some of the other rights of way datasets on rowmaps can be confirmed via council sites. I can't see that http://www.rowmaps.com/ has rights of way data for Hull. Owen @owenboswarva On 21 December 2016 at 11:32, Dave F <davefoxfa...@btinternet.com> wrote: > Interesting.
