About

North Lynn ward is located on the western edge of King's Lynn, bordered by the River Great Ouse to the east and the A148 road to the north. The area is primarily residential, with a mix of post-war housing estates and some newer developments. Its landscape is largely flat, characteristic of the surrounding Norfolk fenland. The ward contains several local amenities including schools, shops, and community centres serving the immediate population.

The ward's western boundary is defined by the presence of the Hardwick Industrial Estate, a significant local employment area. A notable feature is the proximity to the river and the associated flood defence systems that are part of the local infrastructure. Public green spaces are interspersed throughout the residential zones, providing recreational areas. Transport links focus on road connections into the town centre and towards the wider borough.
