If you enjoy country walking off the beaten track, it's often difficult
to find somewhere to leave the car for several hours without it getting
in anyone's way. Country lanes can be narrow with passing places or
field gates which would be obstructed if a car is left there for long
periods.
So it's great to find unofficial parking places such as these -- wide
verges with solid ground, unused corners at junctions, odd bits of
unused land, etc.

It would be even better to be able to locate them on a map in advance.
But how to tag them? It's hardly a Car Park. Nor a Lay-By in the usual
sense -- even if it is, highway=layby appears to be an abandoned proposal:
