The one I saw the other day was a reasonably long loop road. It would expect it to either be maintained by the Local Authority or the Housing Association, but even if it was a non-adopted highway I'm not sure how this would change my tagging??
Shared access driveways were tarmac in this development. I usually tag these are highway=service or not map them at all (in cases where they are short, and I am only using GPS data as no aerial imagery is available).
