King's Lynn and West Norfolk is best known within England for the historic port of King's Lynn, set on the River Great Ouse near The Wash. The town developed as an important medieval trading centre, and its waterfront retains merchants’ buildings and the 1683 Custom House, one of its defining landmarks. St Margaret’s Church, now King’s Lynn Minster, reflects the town’s long ecclesiastical history. Beyond the urban centre, the borough extends across low-lying Norfolk country towards The Wash, the broad tidal estuary on England’s east coast.
