Map of the UK

North Wootton is a small village and civil parish on the eastern edge of King's Lynn, in the borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, Norfolk, England. It sits where suburban development meets open agricultural land, close to the low-lying Fenlands and not far from the coastline of The Wash, making it convenient for commuters to King's Lynn while still feeling rural.

The village has grown from an agricultural past - its name reflecting an Old English "wood farm" origin - into a community with a village hall, local amenities and active clubs, while housing and services expanded through the 20th century. There are still visible traces of farming around the parish and a steady local life centred on community events and easy access to the services and transport links of nearby King's Lynn.
