The mud springs were 'discovered' in 1974, although they must have been known of for much longer. They are a rare geological phenomenon. This image is from within the small copse containing the springs and shows a mud spring. The length of wood visible above my size 10 boot has been pushed into the mud to a depth of about 1.5 metres. There was negligible resistance to the insertion of the branch and the mud pool is probably many metres deep. Lots of stuff on the web so here's the Google search page.
