Full Description

Hilltrack (disused), NC 84687 11045 to NC 84669 11548.
Old track which originally took a more direct route to Breac-achadh, from its departure from the current track at 284687 911045 to where it rejoins it at Breac-achadh. This route was replaced by a more vehicle-friendly, higher-level route to the W, over shallower gradients, in the 1950s. The old track is now completely overgrown by long sedge, grass and reeds and, in places, is very boggy. <1>
