Site description	Eroding blanket peat on spur E of L. Dun. Physiography: flat top of spur. Surrounding vegetation: discontinuous peat vegetation.
Notes	The undulating topography of the plateau on the spur is covered by blanket peat, except where rocks outcrop. The pine stumps appear to be in the hollows, overlying Eriophrum-Phragmites peat. They have been overgrown by blanket peat, and subsequently been Section to 125 cm. Coring from 125-265 cm.
