The reserve comprises of a small area of scrub woodland and a lake. The woodland has developed in the marsh following the cessation of peat cutting. Willow and alder predominate with some birch and holly in a drier corner. There is a very good ground flora. The lake is rich in aquatic insects, particularly dragonflies. Great crested grebes nest on the lake which is also frequented by a variety of wildfowl in winter. The fringing Phragmites bed is occasionally cut for thatch.
