Felling Trees On Quay Rietveld Watercourse

~ ① memo



Felling Trees On Quay Rietveld Watercourse
All the large old trees were recently cut down (for fear of breaking the quay when falling) and most of the younger trees because of a disease, on this circa 1000 years old Kruiskade (Cross Quay) of the ‘Rietveldse Wetering’ (Reed Field Watercourse), between polders around Alphen in the Green Heart of Holland (filmed last week).
