This was worth doing, not least since such a survey was years overdue, and I have made a start at implementing his findings. While the magazine was being reviewed, all manner of suggestions were made, but I recommend that we concentrate first on getting the content right before looking at other possibilities such as a glossy finish and colour pictures.

  • Habitats for Evidence Base
    Bogs Version 1.2 - April 2010 BOGS Bogs are acid peatlands supporting specialised flora and fauna, fed predominantly by rain water. They require water-logging for peat formation and this peat acts as a carbon sink. UK Priority Habitats covered by this statement: Blanket bog Lowland raised bog Cumbria Biodiversity Action Plan habitats covered by this statement: Blanket bog Lowland raised mire Contents Description Distribution and Extent Conservation Issues Planning Considerations Enhancement Opportunities Blanket Bog © Stephen Hewitt Habitat Targets Key Species Further Information Contacts Current Action in Cumbria Description Bogs are peatlands that receive their nutrients from rainfall, as opposed to fens which receive their nutrients from ground water. Bogs may have similar vegetation cover to heathland but they have a deeper peat layer (more than 0.5m). There are two types of bog in Cumbria: blanket bogs, which are mantles of peat formed in the uplands over gently undulating hills, on plateaux and in hollows; and lowland raised bogs, which develop in hollows and shallow lakes on low-lying, level ground, near to estuaries or on the floodplains of rivers, where decaying vegetation has built up to form quite obvious raised mounds of peat. Bogs require permanently waterlogged conditions for peat to form and accumulate from dead plant material that only partially decomposes. Decomposition is unable to fully take place because the lack of oxygen prevents the action of micro-organisms. Bog vegetation is characterised by Sphagnum bog mosses, Cotton-grasses, Cross-leaved Heath and Heather. Sundews, Bog Rosemary and Cranberry are also common. Blanket bogs are important for the populations of breeding birds which they support, including Golden Plover, Dunlin, Curlew, Red Grouse, Black Grouse, Short-eared Owl, Hen Harrier and Merlin.

The nearby picturesque village of Ravenstonedale has award winning pubs, village store and nursery, with further amenities and schools in Kirkby Stephen. Newbiggin-on-lune has excellent transport links, with the M6 and A66 within easy reach and Settle-Carlisle railway station in Kirkby Stephen.
