April to JulyAbout the reserve
A species-rich meadow, this reserve is abundant in wild flowers. It also contains some reedbed and grassland. The early marsh orchid can be seen here, with its unique and very distinctively shaped lip, and the yellow flag iris is widespread in wetter parts of the moor. Another common plant found here is the marsh marigold, a valuable early source of nectar for insects. Amongst the insects found here is the five-spot burnet, a rather striking day flying moth, coloured black with red spots
