Traces of rig-and-furrow are visible at several points on Balnagask Golf Course, occupying pockets of more fertile ground on an otherwise sand-covered rocky headland. The rig, which is most clearly visible under low sunlight, is best preserved at the two locations cited, but over the greater part of the area it appears to have been ploughed down or landscaped for the golf course.
