At that time, and for many years later, OS maps did not explicitly
show rights of way, and always had a disclaimer on them along the
lines of "The depiction of a track or path on this map does not
imply the existence of a public right of way".<br>

Looking at an area I'm very familiar with: it does not show
public rights of way; it merely seems to show paths which are
physically present on the ground. Some of these are rights of

Hi Andy,<br>
<br>
No there isn't - I'm a Premium subscriber.<br>
<br>
The "Standard" base map is rubbish as a map in its own
right. For <br>
example it has contour lines, but no height indications on
them, or even <br>
which direction is uphill. What's the use of that? It is
used as a base <br>
map for other coloured overlays in addition to the Street
map, such as <br>
the National Park Paths, Cycle Map, Greenspace maps. None
of which work <br>
very well.<br>
<br>
On mobile devices there is also a low-brightness Night map
which is useful.<br>
<br>
However, the Aerial, 25K and 50K maps are fine -- and the
3D stuff and <br>
fly-over functions are great.<br>
<br>
The main reason for subscribing however, is the ability to
view a large <br>
database of routes, create your own custom routes to add
to it (or not), <br>
and have an easy URL of your route which you can send to
friends.<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
<br>
Martin.<br>
