I was randomly browsing Google Earth and had drifted into Hungary when I noticed that many plots there, are elongated. They have a short front towards a road, where a house or structure usually is located, but then extend a pretty long way behind that!

I think it predates a lot of the discussion around property development. The old division of land was called a 'Hold' and long and narrow plots allows for easy farming while maintaining access to the road. Long plots mean fewer turns with a plow.
