[Talk-GB] Upper Booth camp site, Pennine Way near Edale

[Dudley Ibbett]

Hi

I have taken a look at my data for this area.  I have a few pictures from when I walked through this "farmyard" that are from 2013.  It was in my early days of mapping.  Looking at this data on JOSM and my pictures I have tidied it up a bit.  I think the satellite imagery has also improved since 2013.

I must admit I don't use highway=path in the UK although it seems to be quite commonly used in other parts of the world.   I have changed these to highway=footway and add access=customers.  These "paths" seem to be about accessing the toilet block and car park with regard to customers using the campsite.  The one south of the toilet block is sign posted "booking in" where it joins the track.    I will have removed the foot=permissive as my understanding that this implies general "permissive" access for the public.    

When it comes to the "paths" in the woods I have changed these to footways and add access=customers.  I assume that if you stay on the campsite you can access these as paying customers.   

I don't know all the detail of the main OSM websites rendering.  If access=customers doesn't render any differently then the owners of this campsite still might not be happy.  I must admit I find it odd that people are walking into this area anyway.  The footpaths in the wood accessable from the campsite don't join up to the public footpath to the west.  There is however a National Trust sign at the south end of this area and it maybe that people presume this gives them a general right of access.

This area also currently has two "place" nodes.  One is for a "village" and the other a "farm".  It probably was a large farm at one tome but now looks more like a hamlet when you walk through it.  There is a small farmyard and a few residential properties.

Hopefully the above is going to be acceptable.  Its about as good as my knowledge and understanding of tagging gets I'm afraid.

Regards

Dudley
