| Veins of the Fens |
|
|
| These ruler straight drainage ditches that criss cross the Fens are maybe not that photogenic but they are the lifeblood of the Fens and are a testament to the fact that most of the Fenlands are in fact ’Man made’. Many around where I live were actually dug by English Civil War prisoners set to work by Oliver Cromwell who originates form Huntingdon, near to Peterborough |

wow, that's a lot of diggin  It's rather impressive they could maintain a straight line considering it is made by hand, and the fact it was before advance engineering techniques and machines were invented. Nice work and nice shot. |
