I would map the area around the road as

I would do the same for the lane/track between farm fields, while it
supports the use of the farm it is not a field.
Thanks, but the problem is that landuse=highway is not a valid tag.
Voting on it was suspended in 2013 after several votes against, see:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/landuse%3Dhighway
However, I have discovered that highway=track, *area=yes* is valid - as
evidence of that it is rendered on the standard map as a light brown
infill between the fences with the existing highway=track as a routable
way superimposed over it, in darker brown.
It seems odd to have highway=track twice, but if that's what it takes to
have a meaningful mapping for an area of land, I'm happy to do it that
way. Presumably the developers of the standard map know what they are doing.
So I seem to have answered my own question, thanks all for the replies.
cheers,
Martin.
