[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2478341, member: 372207"] I just had a look at Wikipedia, and both the natural history of the Fens and the way it looks seem thoroughly Dutch! Funny little detail: The Wikipedia page in Dutch proudly mentions a Dutch engineer in the very first sentence, who supposedly led the works on the land to make them dry and usable: [URL]https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fens[/URL], while the English page does mention this engineer, somewhere hidden halfway the page and with the note he wasn't all this important. :hilarious: The pictures of the Fenn I found on Google could have easily been made very close to my house, they look almost eerily familiar, as if I know where the pictures were taken but can't exactly remember!
