Details

Description:The town of King’s Lynn was one of England’s most important ports from as early as the 12th century and this maritime past is still very much in evidence today. Fine old merchants’ houses stretch down to the river between cobbled lanes and the elegant Custom House overlooks the harbour. The town’s heritage is reflected in an amazing array of historic buildings and at two magnificent market places: Saturday Market Place, where St Margaret’s Church, designated as a Minster Church in 2011, is surrounded by splendid buildings including the Town Hall with its famous “chequerboard” exterior; and Tuesday Market Place, quite possibly one of England’s grandest squares. As such it provides an ideal setting for an urban orienteering event. If you don't have a chance to admire the historic sites as you run round, why not take a longer look after the event.
