Balmblae is an area to the north of Falkland, beyond the Balmblae Burn which formed the northern boundary of the Royal Burgh of Falkland.

Historically Balmblae (sometimes spelt Balinblae) was a separate barony (feudal estate). In 1858 Margaret Tyndall Bruce purchased Balmblae, which thus became part of the Falkland Estate, although it was never part of the Royal Burgh.[1]

See map: Map D (6).
