Indeed - unless they have foot=yes, foot=permissive, access=permissive (etc) or 
designation=public_footpath, we are in no way telling them that they are public 
access.


It is completely unreasonable for landowners to have a go at us just for 
showing a path on the map. Just because it's on the map, it doesn't implicitly 
mean it's public.

Frederik Ramm quoted Mr Angry:

> Upper Booth Farm are public footpaths"

And indeed they're not tagged as such: they are tagged as the perennially
useless highway=path, some of them with highway=permissive, while the
Pennine Way PRoW is tagged (correctly) as highway=footway, foot=yes. I
suspect this is as least as much an osm-carto rendering issue as it is a
mapping issue.
