Grassington Moor - Peatland Restoration Plan
This report describes the results of a survey carried out by Yorkshire Peat Partnership between February and March 2022.
The survey was carried out in 3 parts:
An initial desk-based survey of aerial photographs, which helps make an initial assessment of the type of work that might be needed.
The field survey where information is recorded onto a hand held mapper on the grips, gullies, hags and bare peat as well as the vegetation communities and peat depth.
The post survey is another desk-based survey of the area using a combination of the aerial photography and walkover survey data to classify erosion features.
