Google maps are totally inadequate when trying to convert to walking from driving.

Footpaths have signs but no directions on them at all.

Some trails are marked but picking the way for a new circular walk is nigh on impossible with a compass Hmm

Is there any free app that shows footpaths where u can plot the walk or do I need ordnance survey maps?

OS maps. About £20 per year and you can download all the sections you want and print them out. It's the best value for money ever.

Also put what3words on your phone in case you have an accident and someone needs to find you.
