In many towns and cities in the UK there are small ways behind rows of 
houses.  In my part of the world (Yorkshire) we know them as a tenfoot 
(they are traditionally 10 feet wide).

I have not mapped many - they often seem private to the houses, but 
today I did follow a couple.  I wonder how everyone else would tag 
them.  I have tentatively tagged them as highway=alley (not yet in the 
map features) since this feels a bit more international than tenfoot.  I 
could use highway=service, I suppose they are service roads, but they 
feel a bit different from a service road leading to a fuel station or 
supermarket, particularly narrower and with very sharp corners around 
buildings.

Any ideas?
cheers, Chris
