NH 44/54 OS 575443 No. 101 Balabek Brae.

The public road runs between two roughly parallel turf walls at the edge of, and in, a fir wood on each side of the road. The road changes alignment slightly, and therefore is not equi-distant to the turf walls throughout their length. The distance the turf walls are apart appears to indicate that there was an old route here for driving livestock, perhaps to and from summer sheilings higher up as at OS 582433 (No. 50).
