Fulbourn is a village about 4 miles east of Cambridge with a character shaped by its combination of original agricultural settlement and the former Fulbourn Hospital site, parts of which have been converted into residential use. The older village has traditional Cambridgeshire brick cottages and farmworkers' terraces with clay plain tile roofs, while newer residential development fills in around the edges. The former hospital grounds include converted Victorian institutional buildings — a challenging roofing context involving complex ridgelines, large expanses of slate, and ornate detailing. We cover Fulbourn as part of our regular run east of Cambridge and are familiar with both the modest terraced repairs and the more complex heritage work that occasionally comes up here.

Fulbourn lies just east of Cambridge on the edge of the chalk hills that run into Essex. The village is home to the Fulbourn Nature Reserve and the former Fulbourn Hospital, a large Victorian asylum whose grounds have been partially redeveloped as housing.
Traditional Cambridgeshire brick cottages and terraces in the village core, with post-war and modern infill development. Some converted Victorian institutional buildings on the former hospital site present more complex roofing requirements.
