    Finding UK Footpaths

    I've been helping to clear and re-open local footpaths today and I've found this useful tool which helps you compare an OS map, side by side with Google Maps aerial view, it even replicates your cursor on the second map to help you locate certain things.

    - http://wtp2.appspot.com/ - Best used on a desktop or laptop no doubt.

    Useful for finding new footpaths in your area

    I've had this in my Fave's list for a while now. There used to be an option when you opened it to use an alternative that didn't depend the usage limit set by OS. It seems to have changed, still a useful tool though!
