North Lynn sits on the north bank of the River Great Ouse as a mainly residential neighbourhood of King's Lynn, within the borough of West Norfolk in Norfolk, England. The town itself grew up as a medieval port on the river, while the northern side expanded more in the 20th century, providing a mix of council and private housing and easy access to the port, nearby industrial areas and the open salt marshes that lead out towards The Wash.
Locally there is a strong community feel, supported by schools, shops, community centres and sports facilities, and a workforce drawn to the port, local industry, agriculture and town-centre services. In recent years the area has seen modest regeneration and investment aimed at improving amenities and housing while keeping good links to King's Lynn's historic centre and the coastal landscape beyond.
