The Bog represents part of a well developed and relatively undisturbed intermediate bog , with a poor fen, Atlantic blanket bog , and wet heath land.[3] old red sandstone . The Bog is the most southerly area in Ireland used by the Greenland white-fronted goose , and one of the few peatlands used by the birds as a feeding site.[4] [5]
