Interesting thread, hadn't noticed these relations before. As the paths are already mapped I'm not sure how much copyright another website has over an OSM relation connecting them on what is basically the only route from the main road to The Cobbler?

These relations could be useful I suppose, as in some places you have a sign (e.g. ScotWays) at the bottom of a hill with a destination or hill name on it. Although where do you draw the line regards mapping routes which are unsigned on the ground?
