Saltersley Moss

01 Sep 2010 245
Typical habitat on Saltersley Moss at Wilmslow. This is great for Black Darters and Four-spottted Chaser and the occasional Common Hawker if you are lucky. Just off to the right the peat is being extracted, but no longer using the narrow gauge railway of yore. Nowadays a tractor and tracked trailer do the job of moving the peat to the mill.
