About

Gedney ward encompasses a largely agricultural expanse of fenland within South Holland. The landscape is dominated by expansive, flat fields primarily given over to bulb cultivation and vegetable production. Drainage channels and wider dykes crisscross the area, essential for managing the low-lying terrain. Settlements are small and scattered, with the village of Gedney itself forming the main residential hub, characterised by traditional brick and stone buildings.

The ward's history is deeply tied to land reclamation from The Wash, evident in its straight, engineered waterways and distant sea bank defences. A specific local feature is the historic Gedney Dyke, a significant drainage channel that shapes the parish's western boundary. Economic activity remains firmly rooted in the land, with farming logistics and seasonal work defining the local rhythm, set against a broad, open skyline.
