Part of the Secret series

Paperback / softback

Description

The Fens of Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Lincolnshire (and a small part of Suffolk) are breathtakingly beautiful but misunderstood by some.

This book will explore some of the secrets of the Fens that visitors and locals would be fascinated to learn.

This unique landscape is rich in rare species, unusual traditions, 'Fentastic' festivals and hidden heritage.

This book will help you unlock some of these secrets, including forgotten royalty, how people worked on the Fen lands, how the waterways were used and how flooding is managed today.

Some of its many hidden treasures can be found in architecture, archaeology and stunning landscapes.

Many of the facts in this book will prove that while the Fens may be flat, they are definitely not boring. Author Karen Merrison has unearthed singular events, little-known personalities and places in the history of the Fens to reveal the stories beneath the surface of the area.

With tales of remarkable characters, unusual events and tucked-away or disappeared historical buildings and locations, Secret Fens will appeal to all those with an interest in the history of this area of eastern England.
