Tips

Hoekschop

January 12, 2020

Along the way, a hedge winds up the hill. That it looks like this was done intentionally at the time of construction. In the past, farmers have not had the modern means to win wild land and convert it into fields and pastures. They followed the natural course of streams, wet or dry soils, other bumps and pits.
Their walls and hedges twist through them and create the graceful shapes in the landscape.
Later, people went straight to their destination with modern machines. Potholes were closed, unevenness leveled out and streams straightened. As a result, the winding hedges have disappeared from the landscape.

In the past there were still many hedges to separate pastures and fields, but today, despite all the advantages for erosion control and biodiversity, they are unfortunately only rarely seen.

Where else do you see an arched bench :-)
