The Parish of Thurleigh.

  
  Thurleigh stands on a 250ft high plateau, said to be the largest in England. The parish consists of about 3,400 acres of clay soil, difficult to work in wet weather, and because of its height and lack of sheltering hills, subject to very cold winds.

About 750 people live in the village in about 250 dwellings. The village is spread across 5 ends - Church End, Cross End, Scald End, Backnoe End and Park End - that cover an area of about 6 square miles.

Community life continues to thrive with regular events held at the Village Hall, the Church, the Playing Field Club and the Jackal Public House.
