King's Lynn is one of the most underrated historic towns in England. A former Hanseatic League port, its medieval and early modern commercial architecture is among the finest surviving in Britain — the Custom House, the Guildhall of the Holy Trinity, and the merchant warehouses of the Tuesday Market Place give the town a Flemish quality quite unlike any other English town.
A 17th-century merchant exchange on the River Great Ouse waterfront, one of the finest secular buildings in Norfolk. The quayside setting with the Custom House reflected in the Ouse gives a distinctively Hanseatic character unlike anywhere else on the English coast.
A large priory-origin parish church in the historic heart of the town, with two notable 14th-century brass monuments and a Georgian interior. The Saturday Market Place setting and the medieval street pattern of the old town provide a complete historic backdrop.
The grandest Palladian house in Norfolk, 25 miles north of King's Lynn near Wells-next-the-Sea. The Marble Hall entrance, the landscaped park, the Holkham Beach approach and the estate farm buildings together offer an exceptional range of photographic settings.
The private country residence of the Royal Family in west Norfolk, available for licensed weddings in the grounds. The woodland gardens, lake and formal areas surrounding the main house provide a celebrated setting for wedding photography.
Sir Robert Walpole's 1720s Palladian mansion near Fakenham, considered one of the finest country houses in England. The double-height Stone Hall, the state rooms and the formal gardens are available for private events.
The stretch of coast from Brancaster to Cromer — part of the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty — is within 30 to 60 minutes of King's Lynn. Holkham Beach (voted one of the finest in England), the sand dunes at Brancaster, the marshes at Burnham Deepdale, and the Georgian quayside at Blakeney all provide late-day portrait locations for couples whose venue is in west Norfolk.
