It's been a while since I've been back to Holmwood, and each time I've gone I've found another bit of path to map.

One thing that really stands out this time is how inconsistent the tagging is of ways, we have several different ways on the common:

1) muddy footpaths that aren't a right of way, but since it's on national trust land are public access

2) real muddy public footpaths (yellow arrow).

3) muddy bridleways (blue arrow).

4) bridleways with a new compacted (recycled road surface?) surface that are also usable for cycles, and probably wheel chairs (blue arrow).

5) asphalt or gravel private roads to access the houses and cottages around the common edges.

for 1 and 2 we have any of:

highway=footway, designation=public_footpath, foot=yes
highway=footway, designation=public_footpath
foot=yes, highway=path
highway=footway
highway=path

for 3 we have:

designation=public_bridleway, foot=yes, highway=bridleway

and for 4:

foot=yes, highway=track, horse=yes

and for 5:

highway=track
access=private,highway=track,surface=asphalt

From reading this: osm.wiki/UK_Countryside_mapping

I think we should be using:

1: highway=footway, foot=permissive, surface=*
2: highway=footway, designation=public_footpath
3: highway=bridleway, designation=public_bridleway
4: highway=track, designation=public_bridleway, foot=designated, bicycle=designated, horse=designated, wheelchair=maybe, surface=compacted
5: access=private,highway=track,surface=asphalt

But i'm pretty confused by the new scheme (should i be using the international style instead?), and esp. how to tag accurately and make sure that public footpath come out red and bridleways green on the maps!
