Belgium-Netherlands boundary treaty, which shows a small
rectification of the main boundary between Castelre and Wortel
(Baarle-Nassau & Belgium).(nothing to do with the enclaves, just
a realignment of the boundary so it follows roads rather than
leving two tiny plots beside a road to the country on the opposite
side of that road)
