Comment from Mike Baggaley
HI in this changeset way 202360158 has been tagged as foot=no, bicycle=no when it is also tagged as a public bridleway. Can you please review?
Thanks,

Hi Mike, yes foot and bike traffic is split with horses at this point with a sign similar to this (http://news.eastsussex.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2016/07/Greenways-2.jpg).
Although, I should have / now will set the bridleway to horse=designated.
Thanks,

Comment from Mike Baggaley
HI Alex, a public bridleway is legally open to cyclists and pedestrians, and is normally signed with the words "public bridleway". I suspect in this case, the way is probably not legally a public bridleway, in which case it should have the highway=bridleway tag, but not designation=public_bridleway. If the two run directly side by side, then just use a single way, possible using cycleway=sidepath and similar.
Does that make sense?

Mike,
Indeed, wherever the paths run side-by-side I have put them as a single way.
I was assuming because this horse only section that breaks away from the foot and bicycle path is still a Public Right of Way (see https://www.eastsussex.gov.uk/leisureandtourism/countryside/rightsofway/map/map.aspx, gridref: TQ770107), it still needed some kind of designation tag?

HI Alex, on the map shown, the bridleway and cycleway loop are shown as dotted lines, which according to the key is a licensed/permissive bridleway and hence they are not public bridleways and should not have the designation tag at all. I'm very pleased to see a council not only providing this information, but also explicitly stating it can be used to update OSM!

Hi Mike, yes it's been an invaluable asset to finding paths around my neighbourhood to survey. They also supply a wms overlay (https://data.gov.uk/dataset/rights-of-way-not-definitive-for-east-sussex) which works great with josm.
I'll remove those licensed/permissive designation tags on my next changeset - thanks for explaining and bringing this to my attention.
Alex
