English geography[edit]

Quote from the article: "the gorse-covered sandy heath that lies mostly in the north of the county of Suffolk but also in the south of Norfolk." LOL, and why? Because Suffolk (South-Folk) lies exactly south of Norfolk (North-Folk), if you look at the map of England! Geography 101. 93.219.141.208 (talk) 22:14, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

--- The aforesaid text you seem to be aghast at, is in fact hinting that the Breckland(s) mostly lies within Suffolk, BUT ALSO, a lesser share of it in Norfolk. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.29.26.111 (talk) 04:37, 9 April 2015 (UTC) [reply]

Photo[edit]

Searching on "Breckland" in Commons finds a number of possibles such as File:In Breckland wilds - geograph.org.uk - 564914.jpg. However it probably needs someone familiar with the area to pick the best choice. Dudley Miles (talk) 08:36, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Post-Brexit status[edit]

Does Breckland still fall under the EU's Birds Directive post-Brexit, or does the first sentence of this article need to be updated? – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:01, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
