Section 3 – Mountain, Moor and Heath
Defined Section 3 – Mountain, Moor and Heath areas in Snowdonia National Park, the limit of each mountain, moor and heath area is recorded as a polygon. Section 3 of the Wildlife and Countryside (Amendment) Act 1985 placed a responsibility on each of the National Parks of England and Wales to prepare a map showing those areas of mountain, moor, heath, woodland, down, cliff or foreshore, the natural beauty of which the Authority considers it is particularly important to conserve. The map gives an overall impression of the distribution of mountain, moor and heath and those areas which are considered particularly important to retain. The conservation and enhancement of the natural beauty of the mountains and moorlands is central to the National Park purposes.
