The area around Harleston.
Harleston is a Georgian market town in the Waveney valley on the Norfolk and Suffolk border, with a weekly market and independent shops serving a wide circle of farming villages. Old brick and timber houses make up much of the stock, which suits specialist builders and joiners. Many customers are retirees and people who have moved out of cities for a quieter life. Naming villages on both sides of the river helps, as locals do not treat the county line as a barrier.
Inside South Norfolk, the closest places are Diss (8 miles), Loddon (12 miles) and Wymondham (14 miles). Just over the council boundary, Bungay (7 miles), Eye (9 miles) and Halesworth (10 miles) are close by. Further out, Beccles (12 miles) and Framlingham (13 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.
Within Harleston itself, we build for businesses in Redenhall, Starston, Pulham Market, Mendham, Wortwell and Alburgh.
Harleston addresses fall in the IP postcode area, about 238 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
