Bicker is a small fenland village and civil parish in the Borough of Boston, Lincolnshire, England, sitting on the edge of The Fens a few miles west of Boston. Its flat, drained landscape of rich arable fields and waterways defines the local geography and gives the area a strong agricultural character.
The village has medieval roots and retains a historic parish church and a close-knit community centred on a village hall and local amenities. Today Bicker combines farming traditions with a fair number of commuters and light rural enterprises, and the drainage history and fenland environment are often the most striking features to visitors and residents alike.
