Groeneveld, South Holland Explained

Groeneveld (in Dutch; Flemish pronounced as /ˈɣrunəˌvɛlt/) is a former municipality in the Dutch province of South Holland. It was located to the west of the city of Delft. The municipality covered the Groeneveldse Polder, northwest of De Lier, and contained no towns or villages; only the hamlet of Lierhand.
