Wicken Fen Nature Reserve is a small undrained part of the fenlands north of Cambridge - less than 1% of original fen survives in East Anglia. It was the first nature reserve owned by the National Trust and has been in their care since 1899.
In a reversal of the normal situation the Trust has built windmills around the reserve not to drain the fen but to pump water back in so it doesn't dry out.

St James' church, Dunwich. The lost city of England.
In the Anglo-Saxon period, Dunwich was the capital of the Kingdom of the East Angles and in the 13th century it had 4000 inhabitants with an international port similar in size to 14th century London! It's difficult to believe that when today's village has only 183 people. Coastal erosion has destroyed over half the area of the old city which once extended 2km further out to sea.
HFF and have a great weekend.
