Years ago I did some work for Scottish Natural Heritage on East Flanders Moss, one of the most important wildlife sites in Central Scotland. Subsequently, I published several papers about the history of the site - trying to clear up some of the myths which have developed, in the hope that better understanding of the past would be an aid to modern management and understanding.
In a recent development, SNH have highlighted the work on their blog, particularly some issues around the Homestead Moat, which is located towards the western margin of the bog.

There are also some links to further sources of information - including some of the publications and a hint about the possible origins of the moat site.
