Carrifran Wildwood
Rosebay Willowherb (Chamerion angustifolium), Carrifran Wildwood, Moffat. Like much of Scotland, Carrifran used to be wooded. From the Neolithic onwards, farmers cleared woodland for buildings and grazing, and hunted predators which had kept grazing under control. Until the Millennium, Carrifran was, like other valleys in the Southern Uplands, denuded of trees by grazing and felling. Deer, sheep and goats would have eaten the young trees trying to regenerate. Now a project, led by Borders Forest Trust, with a 100-year vision to restore wild woodland, is in progress, with exclusion of grazers and planting of over half a million native trees of different species to provide a rich habitat for wildlife.
