Hi
How do you know it's private?
NT promote it on their Skyline walk:

My point was it's not officially a public right of way. What would you consider to be better tagging to reflect that?

Comment from DaveF
Leave it as it was.
As it didn't have PROW designation tags it was making no claims that it was.'
'Private' indicates it's not publicly accessible. -
Comment from Nuggg
That's at odds with what I read on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access - perhaps permissive is the appropriate choice in this case. I see you have reverted now anyhow so will leave it to you.

Comment from Nuggg
OK I concede it is NT land and so can be treated as implicitly public along with its paths. However, the track off Bathwick Hill looked like a private driveway to me, complete with gate.

Comment from DaveF
True, just like there's a gate to the Western side. Last time I went through the Bathwick Hill gate it was unlocked & no 'private' signs. To the rear of the houses there are clearly defined property wall boundaries: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DMDIioFX0AEBtNW.jpg

Comment from Nuggg
Rather different looking kinds of gate IMO, with the western one certainly more indicative of public access, but it is all subjective in the absence of signs.
