Glen of the Grouse

Glen of the Grouse is a short but inspirational documentary that follows the journey of Glenfarne Gun Club and Ireland's only Grouse Keeper, John Carslake, on their joint mission to conserve an endangered bird species, the Irish Red Grouse, through the careful implementation of a locally developed management plan on Boleybrack Mountain.

Hugely supported by the upland farmers, the people of Glenfarne and other stakeholders, this is a story of passion and dedication coupled with a desire to share the knowledge gained along the way.

This documentary demonstrates best practice upland management in Ireland.
