The first peatland registration project in Northern Ireland to be registered under the Peatland Code has been certified thanks to efforts by the RSPB.

The site on the Garron Plateau in County Antrim hosts important plants and animals including Marsh Saxifrage, Hen Harriers, Golden Plovers, Dunlin, Irish Hares and Large Heath butterflies. We hope more sites will soon be similarly registered.
