Geography
Accan is situated on the moorland fringe between the high unenclosed moorland of the Waccan Moors and the fields below. The landscape is characterised by marginal pastures with isolated farmsteads, reservoirs, disused mines and quarries scattered across the hillsides.

It is thought this is the reason many an Accan never leaves the area.
