SWT's intended bracken spraying area seems to be the pale zone in the picture which is already covered with dead bracken. It is a repeat application and the regrowth is being targetted. That is unless they mean to take the opportunity to zap other nearby bracken beds. If you walk on it you will find odd patches of bilberry but much of it has little growing beneath the dead bracken straw apart from some bits of moss and an occasional twig of heather. In places there are several inches deep of brown peat, the result of many years growth.
