Westland is a region of the Netherlands and lies in the western part of the Province of South Holland. It consists of the municipalities of Westland and Midden-Delfland, and also of the town of Hook of Holland .Greenhouses were already in use in some country estates from the 18th century, but in the 19th century it was decided to place glass windows against the grape walls to protect the grapes from bad indian summers, which disrupted ripening. Moreover, this also allowed the ripening time to be shortened. This introduced the modern greenhouse horticulture. New inventions such as the lessenaarskas, the kopkas, the druivenserre, the broeibak and the agricultural warenhuis eventually led to the modern greenhouse. From the end of the 19th century, but especially in the period just after 1900, the greenhouse was introduced on a large scale in the Westland, which again completely changed its appearance: over time, about three-quarters of the horticultural area was covered with greenhouses.
