Conwy County Borough Councils Definitive map and OS 1:25000 Scale Colour Raster (the Topographic map layer on the OS Maps app and the map layer used for paper OS maps) which features Public Right of Way footpaths.
shows, the footpath goes south of the stream. This is the same as on published paper map of OL17 Snowdon. The OS app and standard map layer doesn't actually display PROW depicted on local authorities definitive maps but footpaths depicted on OpenStreetMap(OSM) which is incorrectly showing the footpath using the private driveway of Tyddyn y Pandy and not following the actual footpath south of the stream. Correspondence from OS stated "due to licencing restrictions with the Ordnance Survey and OpenStreetMap since they use our base map data, legally we cannot change how the footpath is depicted on their map. This includes me, I cannot make changes for you on OSM.
This means you will need to request a edit to be made on the map itself . please can this error be corrected
