Hockland Road, Tydd St Giles, Wisbech

LOCATION 

The property is prominently located on Hockland Road in the Fenland village of Tydd St Giles. Tydd St Giles is the northernmost parish in Cambridgeshire and is situated 6 miles north of Wisbech. The Shire Drain divides it on the north and west from the sister parish of Tydd St Mary in Lincolnshire. This stream has shrunk to a shadow of its former self but is an important boundary, separating, as it has done, two counties, two dioceses, and in all probability two Anglo Saxon kingdoms.

To the east of the village, the parish includes the hamlets of Four Gotes, Foul Anchor and part of Tydd Gote. The population of the parish is around 1,200.

The village amenities include a primary school, Village Hall, church and the Tydd St Giles Golf and Country Club.
