In the Middle Ages King’s Lynn (or Bishop’s Lynn as it was known then) was one of England’s most important ports. Gradually trade shifted and the town declined before new industries developed such as glassmaking, food canning and soup making. The town’s population grew, partly through overspill from London, although the area around the Fens is sparsely populated. Through the centuries the town has been home to unconventional and eccentric characters, from explorers, adventurers and pirates to anchorites, coffin sleepers and exorcists, and its unusual buildings and structures have been host to many out-of-the-ordinary events.
Quirky King’s Lynn celebrates the unusual and often strange history of the town and its characters over the years. This fascinating insight into King’s Lynn will be of interest to all those who want to know more about the town’s quirky history.
