There's clearly no evidence of 4 wheeled vehicles, so it should be marked as a bridleway, but It's advisable to check the whole length as sections can be used by vehicles such as agricultural ones to get between adjacent fields.

It's a public bridleway, with the usual "evidence", so no argument about that.

But is it highway=bridleway or highway=track?

There is evidence of recent wheeled use, which I think was a tractor gaining access across the adjacent fields for the purpose of hedge-trimming alongside it. It clearly was once a vehicular track.

What I think I'm getting at is this -- is the highway= tag intended to represent the physical appearance, or the intended use?

Arr ..
I'd tag the present use.

highway=track
motor_vehicle=private?
horse=yes
surface=unpaved

Where the 'wheeled use' is not evident then I'd tag highway=bridleway etc.
