The river Welland turns to run along the bottom of a field of sheep to the west of Market Harborough in Leicestershire, UK.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Welland):
The River Welland is a river in the east of England, 56 km (35 m) long, and it has been a main waterway across the part of The Fens called "South Holland" for thousands of years. It rises in the Hothorpe Hills, (adjoining Welland Rise, Sibbertoft) in Northamptonshire, then flows generally eastwards to Market Harborough, Ketton, Stamford, The Deepings, Crowland, Cowbit and Spalding, then into The Wash at Fosdyke Bridge.
