Looking the other way, yet another bridge crosses the canal.
10-Zuidmolen * Looking forward; the building on the right is a house built in the remains of a mill that once pumped water out of the low area into the Poldervaart; straight ahead there used to be another lock, between the mill outlet and the Poldervaart - now gone, like the mill. * 1984 x 1488 * (452KB)

11-Kerkbuurt * Church at Kerkbuurt, just north of Kethel. * 1984 x 1488 * (514KB)

12-Poldervaart * From the bridge, a look over the Poldervaart we just went along. * 1984 x 1488 * (340KB)

13-Bridges-1 * This bridge runs parallel to the railway bridge. On the left side, the foot- and cycle bridge runs under the railway bridge, over the Poldervaart that runs below both. * 1984 x 1488 * (505KB)

14-Bridges-2 * The other side: the cycle bridge runs half the Poldervaart before turning to shore. This is because the railway bridge crosses the Poldervaart in a 45-degree angle. * 1984 x 1488 * (320KB)

17-Church * The church of Kethel, in it's own little park * 1146 x 980 * (143KB)

18-Mansion * and a mansion in the same village. I don't know it's former, nor current function. It may be a home, or, more likely, an office. * 1917 x 1287 * (328KB)

19-Path * The path surrounding the village * 1984 x 1488 * (611KB)

20-Vlietlanden * This area is called Vlietlanden - an area of long, stretched islands surrounded by canals, dug in the 14th century. These islands keep their height because of this water: it's slack, boggy peat in several stages of landing, only good as hay lands. Because of this nature, it's full of specific flora * 1984 x 1488 * (450KB)
