Blakeville - Balt Camp
The 'Balt Camp' was a refugee work camp for 'displaced persons' - including from the Baltic States - after World War 2.
Built in 1946, all that remains today are two chimneys and the foundations/stone walls of multiple buildings including the cook house, managers hut and toilet block..
The remains of the Able Mine lie across the other side of Camp Road.
It is possible to camp here for free but the only facilities are a fire pit.
Location: Balt Camp is located along Camp Road between Lerderderg Track (to the north) and Rat Hole Track (to the south).
