Amber Hill is a small village and civil parish in the Borough of Boston, Lincolnshire, set in the flat, low-lying landscape of The Fens. The character of the area is defined by drained marshland, straight drainage channels and wide skies, so it has a rural, open feel with lots of birdlife and seasonal changes in the landscape.
Locally the economy is largely agricultural, with mixed farming and market gardening dominant, though many people commute to nearby Boston for work and services. The community is small and close-knit, shaped by the long history of fenland drainage and reclamation, and benefits from easy access to the amenities and historic market town atmosphere of Boston while retaining a quiet village life.
