Could we follow the signage for the prow_ref format where the authority puts it on signs?

The most popular was of the form "Chivelstone Bridleway 6" (with the parish name and the RoW type spelt out). This also what the county council uses on their online interactive map. So for now I've set my tool to use this style for Devon. Other formats with significant use in Devon include "Chivelstone BR 6" (with the RoW type abbreviated), "Chivelstone 6" (without the type at all), "211BR11" (presumably the 211 is a parish code), and "DN|Bampton|2" (which is the artificial format used by rowmaps.com). I don't think we can have a single standard for prow_ref formats across the whole county, but I do think we should adopt a single format within each authority area. Given the usage (in OSM and by the Council), I'd suggest going with the "Chivelstone Bridleway 6" style for Devon. I'm going to invite some of the mappers who've been working on Devon PRoWs to comment here with their thoughts.
