Classifications have changed I think. By ways are not for vehicular access any more.
Someone with more knowledge will come along soon.

I would check with your local authority before driving it

According to a quick look I've done on MARIO MARIO - Maps & Related Information Online

The part that's in Lancashire (the track does go outside the county boundary), is marked as a BRIDLEWAY. Please double check with LCC before driving, or recce it on horseback!

EDIT - bridleway = green dotted line and labelled 14-3-BW-274
