Location

Church Lane is a quiet, predominantly residential street at the heart of the small Norfolk village of Rushford, which sits on the Norfolk-Suffolk border along the River Little Ouse. The lane leads directly to the village’s historic church, St John the Evangelist, and is flanked by a mix of traditional cottages and converted farmhouses. Rushford itself is largely agricultural, so local amenities within the village are minimal, residents rely on nearby Thetford, around three miles to the west, for supermarkets, cafés, and other daily necessities. For education, there are no schools in the village, with the closest primary and secondary schools located in Thetford, including Thetford Academy and Admirals Academy.

Public transport is limited; the nearest railway station is in Thetford, providing connections to Norwich and Cambridge, while bus services link surrounding villages. Surrounding settlements such as Brettenham, Croxton, and Euston are within a few miles, offering a mix of rural charm and community facilities. Life on Church Lane is defined by a relaxed, countryside pace, with opportunities for walking along the river, cycling through farmland, and enjoying the peaceful rural landscape, while still being within easy reach of larger towns for shopping, dining, and social activities.
