The area around Thetford.
Thetford lies deep in the Breckland, ringed by the pine plantations of Thetford Forest, and was once a seat of East Anglian kings as well as the birthplace of Thomas Paine. After the war it grew as a London overspill town, so most homes sit on large estates built in the same few decades, and it now has a sizeable Portuguese community. Trades find a lot of similar maintenance and refit work, and a website offering Portuguese contact details can win customers competitors ignore.
Watton (11 miles), Attleborough (13 miles) and Swaffham (16 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in Norfolk, Hingham (15 miles) and Diss (15 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Brandon (6 miles) is also close. A longer drive takes in Mildenhall (11 miles) and Bury St Edmunds (12 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Within Thetford itself, we build for businesses in Brandon, Croxton, Kilverstone, Barnham, Elveden and Mundford.
Thetford addresses fall in the IP postcode area, about 218 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
