Generally I add a node place=farm as I am not certain where the boundary lies

This is a misuse of this tag. place=farm is for the rare (non existent?) cases where a residential community, such as a hamlet, has acquired the name of an adjacent farm. "a place named by a name of a farm" - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Farm

The description for http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:place%3Dfarm is poorly written & confusing.

If mapping just the sheds/farmhouse etc of a farm, landuse=farmyard should be used.

It was discussed previously: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2016-September/019181.html
