About

Springwood ward lies on the eastern edge of King's Lynn, primarily consisting of residential housing built from the 1960s onwards. The area is characterised by estates of semi-detached and detached homes, with local amenities including schools, shops, and a community centre serving its residents. Its layout features numerous cul-de-sacs and green spaces, creating a predominantly quiet, suburban environment.

The ward is defined by its proximity to the large Hardwick Industrial Estate to the north, a major local employment zone. A notable feature is the presence of the King's Lynn Innovation Centre, which sits within the ward's boundaries, focusing on business and technology start-ups. The area is bordered by open farmland to the east, maintaining a clear edge between the town and the rural Norfolk landscape.
