Wisbech

1 : 31680 This plan covers part of East Anglia, with the town of Wisbech depicted at lower left. The Great Ouse estuary, depicted near top right, served as a way into the Port of Wisbech until it became so silted up that the river was diverted into the sea at Kings Lynn. Drains across fens and marshland are highlighted in blue. These date from the 17th century, when James I appointed Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden to direct the drainage of the fens wetlands. Many local people opposed the scheme as the plan involved commonland on which they grazed cattle. As a result of Vermuyden's work, the Fens changed radically in appearance, from an area of flooded marshes to one of extensively farmed agricultural land. Yeakell, Thomas Jr.

A Chart of the Fens between Lynn Regis, Denver Sluice and Wisbich

This is a plan of the Fenlands around Kings Lynn dating from around 1610. It is thought to be a close copy of a map of the same area by William Hayward dating from 1591, now lost. Fenlands are wet lands usually dominated by grasses and sedges, and often used for agricultural purposes. Here the fenland is divided into plots with the names of the land holder marked. Red roofed buildings provide a generalised view of Kings Lynn on the River Ouse. A scale bar records the scale in perches and furlongs and a decorative but unfinished cartouche dominates the top right corner. Hayward, William

Littleport

1 : 31680 This drawing covers part of the Cambridgeshire fenland, an area characterised by straight, water-filled dykes dividing arable land. The New Bedford River is shown running down the middle of the sheet, almost parallel to the original Old Bedford River, taking the waters of the Great Ouse to Denver Sluice, at top right of the plan. In the 17th century, the Dutch engineer, Cornelius Vermuyden was appointed by James I to direct the drainage of the wetlands. As a result of Vermuyden's work, the fens took on a very different appearance, changing from an area of flooded marshes to one of extensively farmed agricultural land. Yeakell, Thomas Jr.Draughtsman

Feltwell St. Nicholas

1 : 31680 The pecked red line following the course of the Little Ouse marks the county boundary of Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. Drawn on the left of the sheet, along the Ouse Valley, is a patchwork of arable land divided by straight water-filled dykes, typical features of the fens landscape. This elaborate system of drains and river diversions was designed in the 17th century by a Dutch engineer called Vermuyden. It made possible the conversion of pasture to arable land in this region.
