About

Gaywood Clock ward sits in the eastern part of King's Lynn, centred on the historic crossroads marked by its namesake clock tower. The area is primarily residential, with housing ranging from Victorian terraces near the centre to post-war estates extending towards the grounds of the College of West Anglia. Local shops and services are concentrated along Gaywood Road and St. James' Street, serving the immediate community.

The ward is defined by the Gaywood River, which flows northward through green corridors like Harding's Pits, a former chalk quarry now a local nature reserve. This watercourse threads past playing fields and the large parkland of Reffley, offering walking routes. The distinctive clock tower, a focal point at the main junction, was erected in 1887 to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee.
