Collecting in the Saltmarsh of Poole Harbour

Collecting from the mud of a saltmarsh is a little trickier. little depressions where shelly remains lie is a good place to scrape. Near the high tide line there may be stranded pools. These areas particularly at Arne, are quite rich in a variety of uncommon Arenaceous types QV in laterPosts. Be on the look out for very soft muds that will not support walkers and are dangerous. The base of channels are generally the hardest areas for walking.
