Tydd St Mary is a village and civil parish in the South Holland district of Lincolnshire, England, about 9 miles (14 km) east of the town of Spalding and about 5 miles (8.0 km) north of Wisbech, Cambridgeshire. The Civil Parish includes the hamlet of Tydd Gote which lies partly in Tydd St Mary[2] and partly in Tydd St Giles, Cambridgeshire.[3]
The village has two medieval boundary crosses, one at Manor Hill Corner, which is Grade II listed[4] and a scheduled monument,[5][6] and White Cross which stands north of Poultry Farm at Hunts Gate at the western edge of the village and is a scheduled monument.[7][8]
The parish church is a Grade I listed building dedicated to Saint Mary dating from the 12th century and restored 1869.
