This site is a fine example of acid heath and grassland, with areas of bare ground, all of which are rare habitats in our region. As a result of the acidic soil, specialised communities of mosses and liverworts are present. These include the likes of Heath Plait-moss Hypnum jutlandicum, Rusty Swan-neck Moss Campylopus flexuosus, White Earwort Diplophyllum albicans, Crenulated Flapwort Solenostoma gracillimum and numerous others. We will scour the slopes while enjoying stirring views to the South and West.
