Tips from the Community

Stephen
October 1, 2024, Lily Pond, Peckover House Gardens

Peckover House is a secret gem, an oasis hidden away in an urban environment. A classic Georgian merchant's town house, it was lived in by the Peckover family for 150 years. The Peckovers were staunch Quakers, which meant they had a very simple lifestyle yet at the same time they ran a successful private bank. Both facets of their life can be seen as you explore the house and as you wander the gardens. The gardens themselves are outstanding -0.8 hectares (2 acres) of sensory delight, complete with orangery, summer-houses, croquet lawn and rose garden with a varitety of species of rose.

Wisbech is a market town and inland port known as 'the Capital of The Fens'. The tidal River Nene runs through the town and is spanned by two road bridges. It's noteworthy for its fine examples of Georgian architecture, particularly the parade of houses along the North Brink.

With a blend of pathways, neatly trimmed privet hedges, and pockets of woodland, this location provides an excellent setting for a run amid diverse surroundings.

Wisbech has really suffered lately. The town centre is a sea of empty or down at heel shops. Shame, as some of the local buildings show how grand this place used to be.
