dbo:abstract Sir Cornelius Vermuyden (* 1595 in Tholen, Niederlande; † April 1683 in London) war ein niederländischer Ingenieur, der niederländische Landgewinnungsmethoden in England einführte und federführend war bei der Trockenlegung der Fens in East Anglia. König Karl I. beschäftigte ab 1626 den Deichbauingenieur Vermuyden zur Trockenlegung von auf der Isle of Axholme, Yorkshire. Dieser verpflichtete niederländische Arbeiter, was den Widerstand der einheimischen Bevölkerung hervorrief, da das Projekt gleichzeitig ihre Fisch- und Jagdgründe zerstörte. 1629 wurde er für seine Dienste zum Ritter geschlagen und 1633 englischer Bürger. Bis 1637 arbeitete er an der Entwässerung der Great Fens in Cambridgeshire, diese wurden jedoch 1642 während des Englischen Bürgerkriegs aus militärischen Gründen wieder geflutet. Ab 1649 leitete Vermuyden die erneute Trockenlegung. Im Jahr 1653 führte er eine diplomatische Mission für eine politische Union mit den Niederlanden, die jedoch erfolglos blieb. Sein Sohn ist (1627–1693). (de) Sir Cornelius Vermuyden (Sint-Maartensdijk, 1595 – London, 11 October 1677) was a Dutch engineer who introduced Dutch land reclamation methods to England.

Dans les années 1650, il dirige de grands projets pour drainer les Fens en Est-Anglie, introduisant l'innovation de la construction des washes, pour permettre l'inondation périodique de la région par l'eau excédentaire. Une conséquence inattendue a été le rétrécissement de la tourbe au fur et à mesure de son séchage, entraînant un abaissement du niveau des terres en aval des rivières et des drains et une nouvelle inondation saisonnière. Cela ne pouvait pas être contrôlé avant que le développement des pompes à vapeur au XIXe siècle utilisées à l'évacuation de l'eau et la construction de nouveaux projets de contrôle de l'eau dans les années 1960. À Ramsey Forty Foot sur le , on peut trouver un très bon exemple de pompe à vent, à vapeur et diesel fonctionnant côte à côte. Le possède un très gros moteur de pompage en état de fonctionnement, mais non utilisé activement. Les Norfolk Broads ont été principalement créés par l'extraction de la tourbe à cause de ce drainage.
