text: Although valley mire and bogs are technically wetland habitats I have included them with heath because they form in low lying valleys and depressions in heathland areas where water percolates through the sand and gravel of the neighbouring higher ground into the low lying area from where it cannot readily escape, possibly because of the topography of the ground (bog) but also, frequently, where the vegetation slows down the run off into a stream or river (mire).
