About

Upwell, Delph and Emneth sit in the low-lying Fenland of west Norfolk, within the borough of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. The area is shaped by a grid of drainage channels, embankments and fields used for cereals and market gardening. Villages and hamlets cluster along lanes and small bridges, with parish churches and village halls serving local communities. Farming and water management are visible in pumping stations and maintained drains that cross the landscape and set the pattern of land use.

Settlements here bear traces of transport and industry from the late 19th and early 20th centuries; the course of the Wisbech and Upwell Tramway is still remembered in local roads and place names. Hedgerows, wet ditches and fringe grazing provide habitat for wintering wildfowl and passage waders, particularly where shallow drainage channels widen into reed margins. Local life revolves around parish events, working farms and the maintenance of fen infrastructure that keeps the land arable and connected to neighbouring parishes.
