Walked the Essex Way from Cressing through as far as Great Leighs, about 11 miles in all. When editing the map, found a few instances of previously mapped FPs which bore no relation to the GPS route or to OS maps, and some mapped FPs that didn't exist at all. It's much harder trying to reconcile different parts of routes which have previously been badly drawn, than it is to draw a new way on top of a GPS track in JOSM.
