Place of natural beauty.
Mainly paper bark and bottlebrush; hypha reed grows there - but clearing and drainage has reduced the incidence. Some regeneration going on. Swamp is a declared wetland through the Peel Inlet Management Authority. Causeway passes through the swamp- was constructed in the late 1970's.
Before the area was developed, the swamp served as a stock watering hole (mainly cattle) for stock being taken down from Serpentine-Jarrahdale to the coast because it contained fresh water. Also used for recreational purposes. Drainage was undertaken in the early 1950's. In winter, because there is water, birds come to the swamp. Dry in summer. Road verge assessed as high conservation value.
