    the sunken fence
    < French haha!
    Landscape feature: a trench in the ground, one side of which is a slope and the other a perpendicular wall, to keep animals out of formal gardens, etc., without affecting the view. First invented by French landscape gardners; said to be named after the exclamation of surprise it would draw from a person out walking.
