Wisbech and King's Lynn
 


Wisbech
A Georgian Market Town, known as the "Capital of the Fens", Wisbech has grown from its origins as a port to be a major shopping, employment, education and cultural centre in the area. It has some of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the UK.

Situated on the A47 trunk road, which is now a bypass around the town, Wisbech is 20 miles East of Peterborough (trains to Kings Cross take 55 minutes), 13 miles South-West of Kings Lynn and 40 miles North of Cambridge. This makes it well located for access to the majority of East Anglia and the Midlands.

Wisbech Grammar School is an independent school offering a high standard of education.

King's Lynn
The ancient sea port and town of King's Lynn lies on the eastern bank of the Great Ouse, approximately two miles from The Wash. Over a period of 1,000 years King's Lynn has developed from a small fishing and farming community to become one of the more important towns in East Anglia. It has important examples of Tudor and Georgian architecture.

Situated at the junction of the A10 and A17 trunk roads, King's Lynn is 45 miles north of Cambridge and 50 miles west of Norwich. Being close to the A47 trunk road, it is well located for access in all directions.

As an important market town and shopping centre, the town has a number of the national well-known chains and an excellent selection of local specialist retailers. A full range of manufacturing and service industries are located on the various industrial estates around the town. King's Lynn has excellent leisure facilities with a swimming pool and sports centres and the Corn Exchange provides quality on-stage entertainment.

There are a number of independent schools in the area as well as state schools and a technical college.
