Without ditches; describing an area or system that has no drainage ditches or channels.
From 'ditch' plus the negating suffix '-less' (from Old English), meaning 'lacking ditches' or 'free of ditches.'
Modern suburban developments often aim to be ditchless by using underground stormwater systems—but this can actually reduce habitats for frogs, dragonflies, and other wetland creatures!
