Pode Hole is a tiny hamlet in South Holland, Lincolnshire, England, sitting on the edge of the Fens beside the River Welland. It occupies a very low-lying, reclaimed landscape and is best known for the complex drainage systems that keep the surrounding farmland workable.

The pumping station at Pode Hole has long been the focal point of the settlement: originally established to drain marsh and control water levels, it remains important to local drainage authorities and is of interest to those who study fenland engineering. The surrounding area is intensively farmed with large arable and horticultural enterprises, and the small community - plus the hamlet’s unusual name - often draws curiosity from local historians and visitors interested in rural and industrial heritage.
