About

Southery, Feltwell and Hockwold are villages set within the flat, open fenland landscape of West Norfolk. The area is defined by expansive agricultural fields, drainage ditches and wide skies. The villages themselves are linear in layout, following the course of older roads and droves across the drained marshes.

The landscape is a product of centuries of land reclamation. Wind pumps and later diesel engines were historically crucial for managing water levels. The area remains predominantly rural, with large-scale farming operations. The distinctive straight-line geometry of the fields and waterways contrasts with the more ancient, irregular patterns found in other parts of the county.
