taken 4 years ago, near to Seafield, West Lothian, Scotland

Raised Dry Strip of Land between Two Ditches on Boggy Ground
Raised Dry Strip of Land between Two Ditches on Boggy Ground
Makes a handy path but not sure this is why it exists. Haven't checked any (modernish) maps but didn't exist in the 1960s. Is 12 - 15 feet wide and ditches are full. This land is part of Easter Inch Moss and Seafield Law Nature Reserve and there are comments made on their website about trying to return the peat bogs to their original state, so perhaps something to do with this.
