The Broads National Park, situated in Norfolk and Suffolk, is the newest National Park in England and Wales. Oulton Broad, one of the finest stretches of inland water in England, forms the southern gateway to the park. The region known as the Norfolk Broads, or Broadland, is a landscape of slow-moving rivers, fens, marshes, and waterlogged woodland located east of Norwich. It takes its name from some 50 shallow lakes, the great majority of which were hand dug in medieval times as a source of peat for fuel. It is now a center for water recreation. More about the area can be found at the Web site of the Broads Society.
