Gedney Hill is a small village in the district of South Holland, in Lincolnshire, England. It sits on the flat, reclaimed Fenland typical of the area, with a landscape of low-lying fields, drains and ditches that reflect centuries of land drainage and agricultural engineering.
The local economy is overwhelmingly agricultural, with arable crops, vegetables and bulb-growing common on the fertile soils, and the village’s history and layout still bear the marks of enclosure and drainage schemes. Socially it retains a compact, village feel with local clubs, a village hall and a mix of traditional cottages and working farm buildings that point to its rural past.
