Descrição
Comprising mainly of both wet and dry peatland and lowland heath, the area comprises of Goss Moor in the West and Tregoss Moor to the East with farmland in the North Middle section. The area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and are part of a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). Much of the area was involved in 'Tin Streaming', a mining method of extracting tin from the ground by the use of streams and rivers, very much like gold mining in the Yukon. The use of 'Tin Streaming' over many hundreds of years has ecologically changed the environment, by physically changing the landscape or by contaminating the composition of water courses.
The source of the River Fal (eventually reaching the English Channel at Falmouth) can be found on Goss Moor and the area has many nationally scarce and rare plants and animals, such as Yellow Centaury (Cicendia filiformis), Marsh Clubmoss (Lycopodiella inundata), Odorata such as Small Red Damselfly (Ceriagrion tenellum), Variable Damselfly (Coenagrion pulchellum), Lepidoptera such as Silver Studded Blue (Plebejus argus), Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary (Boloria selene), Grizzled Skipper (Pyrgus malvae), Marsh Fritillary (Euphydryas aurinia), Narrow-bordered Bee Hawk-Moth (Hemaris tityus) and Double Line Moth (Mythimna turca), mammals such as Eurasian Otter (Lutra lutra), Hazel Dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius) and the more common Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) can also be found. The narrow A30 road once ran through Goss Moor, but since the opening (2007) of the newer A30 duel carriageway further North the older road is now much less used.
The Par - Newquay 'Atlantic Line' rail bridge over this old A30 is probably more 'famous' for being the most hit rail bridge in the United Kingdom. Around the site is the Goss Moor Multi Use Trail (Horse riding/Cycling/Running) that is 7 miles long and mostly flat.
During Winter a Picanço-grande is a distinct possibility, Corvo are commonly seen, during summer. Noitibó da Europa, Felosa-musical, Felosa-malhada and the once common but now increasingly rare Papa-moscas-cinzento are likely. Amongst raptors peneireiro-de-dorso-malhado / peneireiro and possibly Esmerilhão, or even Ógea checking out the numerous pools can also be possible.
