The old shed is still clearly visible, but the fence in the background is almost entirely obscured by the mist.Berkmeer is a polder and residential area in the Dutch province of North Holland. Plans to drain Berkmeer date back to 1609, but they were not implemented at that time. The intended embankment of the adjacent Heerhugowaard prompted a reconsideration of the plan. On March 21, 1633, the States of Holland and West-Friesland granted a charter for the embankment of Berkmeer. Just two years later, in June or July 1635, the entire polder had been surveyed and divided. A survey determined the total new land area to be 301 morgens and 546 rods.
