I would guess this is a service road (i.e. leads to a few private 
residences/farms etc) over which runs a bridleway.

If this is the case I would tag as

highway=service; foot=yes; horse=yes; bicycle=yes

and maybe add motorcar=private though I don't really consider this 
essential.

This tagging scheme indicates that foot,horse and bike have access over 
the service road which they don't have over all service roads.

This will also allow the Freemap renderer to show the service road with 
the bridleway symbol (dashed red line) overlaid to indicate that you can 
walk/ride along the way.
