Description Lindow Moss near Wilmslow where two or possibly three bog bodies including Lindow Man or Pete Marsh (now in the British Musuem) were discovered in the 1980s. A prehistoric trackway was also reported in the area in the 19th century. The layer of sphagnum peat in which the bodies lay has now almost completely disappeared due to commercial peat cutting on the Moss.
