Burnham on Sea lifeboat launch crew return to the boathouse after lauching an inshore lifeboat into Bridgwater Bay, a tracked unit is required to cross the mud at times of low tide such as in this image. The sea defence required to hold the extreme tidal range can just be seen left of image and the notes show the position of the two rivers that enter the bay at this point.. The image is in 16.9 so a large view would be appreciated. HFF and a great but safe weekend from Somerset.

After the construction of the Anna Paulownapolder an office of the water board was built. This stately home is locally known as Polderhuis . In 1885 the Poldertuin (Polder Garden) around the house was designed by landscape architect Jan David Zocher jr., who also designed the well known Vondelpark in Amsterdam and the garden of Soestdijk Palace. His gardens are characterized by winding paths and water features with bridges. Polderhuis (nowadays privately owned) and Poldertuin were sold to the municipality. The garden is still owned by the municipality of Hollands Kroon, but since 2014 it is managed by a foundation. In autumn volunteers plant 220.000 flower bulbs, which are blooming between early April and mid May. The flower bulbs are donated by about hundred flower bulb growers in the region. The Poldertuin with its large variety of springtime flowers like tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and special bulbs and tubers is also called ‘Little Keukenhof’ and can be visited free of charge. The garden is a real hidden gem in the Kop van Noord-Holland and not very known to tourists.
