I understood that you right was to "pass and re-pass" but not to loiter or congregate?
No. It has been established in the courts that the right is to use the footpaths for any reasonable leisure purpose. That includes picnics, birdwatching, plane-spotting and even walking. What you must not do is obstruct them in the course of undertaking your hobby, so if someone is coming through, move your tripod/stepladder/row of chairs chained together.
