In all cases? You should only 'interpret' (I think you mean guess) when there is clear evidence.

Farm fields have barriers just to prevent the livestock escaping. Why would you put an access tag to the field entrance gate? If there's a public footpath passing through that gate you wouldn't put an access tag, would you?
