    Tips

    The result of trapped snow and ice from the ice age created this boggy area with its tarn, which is called Greenest Moss

      Nice bit of the wet stuff to break up the mountainside.

        This tarn is not called Greenest Moss as mentioned above but Greensett Moss.
        It is in a boggy area and therefore not really accessible or suitable for a swim.
