IPCC Bogland Reserve: Sheheree Bog Nature Reserve,
Co. Kerry
Sheheree Bog, Co Kerry is located in a shallow depression.
The bog is surrounded by farmland which is mainly used for pasture.
The transition from bog to mineral soil is called the lagg and
is still relatively natural at Sheheree in contrast to many other
bog in Ireland which have suffered marginal drainage and turf
cutting.
