[OSM-newbies] Highway=stile vs Barrier=stile

[Mike Harris]

Hi

I think I may have started this thread - and received some really good and
helpful comments, for which my thanks. My interest arose because I am
currently adding as many as possible of the public rights of way and other
footpaths in west and mid-Cheshire on the basis of a seven year (and still
growing) stash of time-stamped gps tracks from my walking endeavours.
Stiles, gates, kissing gates, etc. are of course quite important to walkers
- especially to less able walkers - when assessing a possible route.
