About Lexden & Prettygate
Lexden is a suburb about a mile west of Colchester city centre. It was historically a separate village and parish, and its name comes from the Old English for 'Leaxa's valley'. It has two local nature reserves, two 400-year-old watermills and an iron bridge over the River Colne. Prettygate lies alongside it and is covered on the same visits.

Does paint protection help with tree sap and bird droppings in Lexden?
It helps. Paint protection is applied to clean, prepared paint and adds a layer that makes everyday contaminants easier to remove. Droppings and sap should still be washed off promptly.
Do you cover Prettygate as well as Lexden?
Yes. Prettygate is next to Lexden in west Colchester, and both are covered as part of Colchester.
