Crossing place A gate, almost impossible to open in a dyke. There is moorland on both sides. The map shows a path running southwards on the west side of the dyke, lies! There is no crossing place over the next dyke on this side. If heading south towards the road you should ignore the Ordnance Survey and stay on the eastern side of the dyke here.

Rough grazing Grassland on Dirrington Little Law, the mapped path does not exist other than as a nicety on Scottish Borders Council's core path map. Still no need to not walk/ride it though as there is a crossing place onto moorland here and the going is easy.
