Contrast this to the extreme damage done to deep peat by wildfires, the like of which we have seen in recent years—but particularly this year in Morayshire, at Carrbridge and Dava, the largest ever in Scotland at 11,827 hectares. They were also in the North York Moors, still smouldering in the deep peat a month after the fire started and relighting from time to time, yet again bringing the fire services and local land managers back out to fight them.
