Here's what ROSPA has to say:
(http://www.rospa.com/faqs/detail.aspx?faq=431)

What are the rules about separating cyclists and pedestrians?
Footways are for the use of pedestrians. It is illegal to cycle on the footway, unless signed otherwise. Cycling on the footway poses danger, concern and fear to pedestrians, particularly to elderly or disabled people.

Cycling is permitted on footpaths (as opposed to footways or pavements) provided that the Highway Authority has designated all or part of the footpath as a cycle track under the terms of the Cycle Tracks Act 1984. Cycling is permitted on bridleways under the Countryside Act 1968.

Cyclists should only ride on footpaths and bridleways where there is sufficient space for the safe use of the path by all users, and should give way to pedestrians and horse riders. If the route is intended as a commuter route it should conform to high standards of safety and design, particularly regarding sight-lines, appropriate stiles/gates, pavement obstructions, lighting and maintenance.
