Tully Bog is an isolated lowland raised bog lying in a shallow hollow within the former flood plain of the Lower Fairy Water River. The central intact dome is fairly well developed and supports a weak temporary pool system with a good hummock and hollow development on the bog plain.
There is a small raised drumlin in the centre of the bog, which is covered by a shallow layer of peat, where birch woodland has developed. Close to this, a linear pool with S. cuspidatum has formed in a deep, narrow fissure in the peat’s surface.
