Description & Travel information for Saundby and places above it in the hierarchy

Saundby

Saundby is a small village and a parish 148 miles north of London, 7 miles north-east of East Retford and 3 miles south-west of Gainsborough (in Lincolnshire). The River Trent provides the eastern border of the parish. In the 1800s, much of the parish was grazing land.

If you are planning a visit:

  • By automobile, take the A620 arterial road north out of Retford. This road runs right through the village.
     
  • Alternatively, take the A631 arterial west out of Gainsborough, turn south at the A620 interchange and you'll be in Saundby before you can get up to the speed of traffic.
     
  • There is bus service to Saundby with a stop on the A620, but no rail service. Mat FASCIONE provides a picture of the A620 Bus Shelter on Geo-graph, taken in May, 2016.
     
  • For photographs of the parish, see those taken by Barbara Whiteman on Pictures of England.
