It is situated {{convert|4|mi|km|0}} east from Bourne and {{convert|6|mi|km|0}} south-west from Spalding, and alongside the Counter Drain that runs between Baston and Pode Hole. Tongue End comprises Victorian red-brick farmworkers' cottages and early 20th-century former council houses.[1] It once had a village school (built in 1876), and three public houses.[1][2] The name is said to refer to the shape of the land between the rivers Glen and Bourne Eau.{{citation needed|date=June 2012}} There is a location on the Stamford Canal which is similarly formed and has the same name.[3] Tongue End falls within the drainage area of the Welland and Deepings Internal Drainage Board.[4] Gilbert Heathcote's tunnel drained into the Counter Drain nearby.
