&gt; I have obtained a copy of map H from the 1842 <br/>
Belgium-Netherlands boundary treaty, which shows a small <br/>
rectification of the main boundary between Castelre and Wortel <br/>
(Baarle-Nassau & Belgium).(nothing to do with the enclaves, just <br/>
a realignment of the boundary so it follows roads rather than <br/>
leving two tiny plots beside a road to the country on the opposite <br/>
side of that road)<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; The plots of land have a description of land use attached to <br/>
them. Most I can translate but one eludes me. <br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; terre labouree = worked/tilled/ploughed land (land under <br/>
cultivation?)<br/>
&gt; sapins = fir trees<br/>
&gt; taillis= copse/coppice/thicket<br/>
&gt; bruyere= heath/heather<br/>
&gt; jardin = garden<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; but can anyone translate &quot;Bois de cheue&quot;? There is what <br/>
appears to be a circumflex (^) over the first e in cheue. And as the <br/>
&#39;c&#39; is lowercase, it is definitely not a placename. I&#39;m guessing its <br/>
a particular type of tree?<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; Merci beaucoup!<br/>
