I have had similar issues, but without the abusive farmer in your part of the world? (Weardale). My old OS map said the Weardale w Way went through this field, and there was a waymark at the junction with the road, but once in the (very large!) field, there was no obvious way out - just rusty gates and barbed wire - I think the route was changed, but they didn't take down all the old waymarks, which left a lot of paths to nowhere..... Can't remember how I mapped that in the end....
