England

Explanation:

The Bedford Level Experiment was carried out in England, specifically along a stretch of the Bedford River. This experiment was conducted in the 1830s by Samuel Rowbotham to provide evidence for the Earth's curvature, using a series of poles set at a distance apart. The results from this experiment helped support the theory of a spherical Earth.
