This article appears in Volume V01, Page 693 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: AJA-ALL
ALLEN, BOG OF , the name given to a congeries of morasses in Kildare, King's County, Queen's County and
Westmeath
 , Ireland. Clane Bog, the eastern extremity, is within 17 M. of Dublin, and the morasses extend westward almost to the
Shannon
 . Their
total
  area is about 238,500 acres. They do not form one continuous bog, the
tract
  of the country to which the name is given being intersected by strips of dry cultivated
land
 . The rivers Brosna, Barrow and
Boyne
  take their rise in these morasses, and the Grand and Royal canals
cross
  them. The Bog of Allen has a general
elevation
  of 250 ft. above sea level, and the
average
  thickness of the
peat
  of which it consists is 25 ft. It rests on a subsoil of clay and marl.
