STOKE FERRY

Nestled on the edge of the Fens, Stoke Ferry has a rich history, being well-established by the Norman Conquest, with its population, land ownership, and resources thoroughly recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086.

Approximately seven miles southeast of Downham Market, the village is near the River Wissey, also known historically as the River Stoke.

The village centre, referred to as The Hill, features The Hall, a substantial three-story brick house built in 1792, now re-purposed as office space, located opposite the church.

In terms of amenities, the village includes a post office, fish and chip shop, and several traditional village shops, including a blacksmith's shop which has been in operation for over a century. There are also two public houses: The Millers Arms and The Blue Bell - the latter being a community pub since 2021, the result of much fund-raising and campaigning.

For major amenities, Downham Market is just a short distance away. This thriving market town boasts a range of shops, boutiques, cafes, and restaurants. The town also hosts a regular market, where locals can browse a variety of fresh produce, local crafts, and other goods.

The town also has a mainline train station. This station provides excellent transport links, connecting the area to major cities like Cambridge and London, or even to the Norfolk town of King's Lynn.

Commuters can enjoy a hassle-free journey, with regular train services offering quick and convenient access to these urban hubs. Whether it's for work, leisure, or exploring the cultural and educational opportunities available, having a reliable train service at your doorstep opens up a world of possibilities.
