TWW Comment

In Bobbio Pellice at the head of the valley the dam which holds back the Pellice when in full flood is named after Cromwell - la diga di Cromwell. It was built in 1730 with funds raised in England and Netherlands (https://www.olivercromwell.org/Cromwelliana_Archive/2006.pdf) and (https://www.legart.it/territorio/valpellice/paesi/bobbio.htm)
