Climate exposure

This is about exposure to a nationwide pressure this habitat type carries — not a verdict on this site's own management.

Peatland

Peat habitats store centuries of carbon and depend on a stable, waterlogged water table. Warmer, drier summers dry out peat, making it far more vulnerable to wildfire and to carbon release — a pressure that can undo years of restoration work regardless of how well the site is otherwise managed.

Habitats

Blanket bog, Mixed scrub, Montane scrub, Upland calcareous grassland

Description

GLEN FENDER MEADOWS Glen Fender Meadows is located 2km north-east of Blair Atholl. It is bisected by the Fender Burn: on the north side is a steep but narrow bank lying within Atholl Estates; most of the site lies to the south on a sloping undulating area with morainic knolls and some rock outcrops. Spring-fed fens have formed in many of the hollows, especially to the east of the site. The site comprises an extensive area of unimproved base-rich flushes, with species-rich heath and calcareous grassland on morainic knolls, habitat types which are rare and decreasing in the area. The mosaic of habitats, which also includes birch woodland and scrub regeneration, neutral grasslands and various forms of wetland, creates an exceptionally diverse area for a wide range of species especially vascular plants and bryophytes but also snails, moths and butterflies. The site is outstanding for two plant species of national rarity, the brown bog-rush Schoenus ferrugineus and false sedge Kobresia simpliciuscula. Brown bog-rush only occurs in Britain in a small area centred on northern Perthshire, on the periphery of the species’ geographical range in Europe.
