About

The Wells with Holkham ward encompasses a coastal stretch of North Norfolk, centred on the harbour town of Wells-next-the-Sea. The area is defined by its working port, tidal creeks, and the expansive salt marshes that separate the settlement from the open sea. A distinctive feature is the mile-long raised causeway road leading to the town, flanked by channels and grazing marshes, with a collection of brightly painted beach huts lining the shore at low tide.

Inland, the ward includes the vast, open landscape of Holkham, dominated by the historic Holkham Hall estate and its associated parkland. This area is characterised by pine woodlands, freshwater marshes, and the wide, sandy expanse of Holkham Beach. The landscape is largely agricultural, with large arable fields and managed habitats that form part of a nationally important nature reserve, blending estate management with coastal preservation.
