[Talk-GB] Rights of Way tiles

Hi folks,

I've knocked up a quick tileset for local authority Rights of Way data, based on the excellent resource collected by Barry Cornelius at rowmaps.com.

It's just a simple rendering of the openly-licensed PRoWs: green=footpath, brown=bridleway, red=restricted byway, blue=BOAT.

You can load it in your favourite editor (or JOSM) at:
	https://osm.cycle.travel/rights_of_way/{z}/{x}/{y}.png

or you can browse the tiles at
	https://osm.cycle.travel/rights_of_way.html

The original licence of each dataset still applies, which is generally OGL.

My main use case is when people have mapped/changed highway=track, highway=path or highway=service (*cough* Amazon *cough*) without adding designation= or access tags, but hopefully it'll find service in the wider cause of PRoW mapping. Please be aware of the limitations of the source dataset, and also don't just use it to trace rights of way en masse - thank you!

cheers
Richard
