Brackagh Bog
I went to Brackagh yesterday with a friend and because the Nettles and Ferns were that Long and High we didn’t get on our usual walk,it would really need better looked after also you have to watch were you walk as on the main path all you see is Dog Fouling,i wish someone would please cut the paths and keep it free from heavy growth and something needs done about the Dog Fouling.Also it would be nice to see a Seat along the main Paths.
