Hockwold cum Wilton — to give it its full name — is a small, unhurried parish in the Breckland fens of Norfolk, close to the Little Ouse river and the Norfolk-Suffolk border. The village has a traditional Norfolk feel, with a church, scattered farmsteads, and a core of older brick cottages that in some cases date back several centuries. Properties in this part of the fens can be affected by damp and groundwater issues that put additional pressure on roofing and lead flashings — keeping a sound roof in good repair is particularly important here. Brandon Roofers work throughout this corner of Norfolk and are happy to carry out a free survey on any property in Hockwold.

Hockwold cum Wilton sits in the Breckland fens near the Little Ouse, a few miles from Feltwell and Brandon. The low-lying fenland setting and proximity to the river mean moisture management is an ongoing consideration for older properties in the parish.
Older Norfolk brick cottages and farmhouses make up the majority of the housing stock, with some modest 20th-century additions. Outbuildings and agricultural structures with aged felt or fibre cement roofing are also present.
