This trip will explore cutaway peatland at Corlea Bog. A new trackway has been developed that provides good access to the site and there is also an adjacent link to the Royal Canal nearby. Cutaway peatland habitats have been developing in this area for 20 years and Pyrola rotundifolia (Round-leaved Wintergreen) is just one species that has recently been recorded (having not been recorded on the site or in the area in the past. If time allows, we will also explore along the Royal Canal.
