Walpole Highway is a small rural village and civil parish in the borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in Norfolk, England. Part of the cluster of Walpole settlements, it sits on the low‑lying Fens and is characterised by broad skies, drained arable fields and a landscape shaped by centuries of land‑drainage and agriculture.
Today the village remains largely agricultural, with farms and a handful of local businesses supporting a close‑knit community; its social and historic identity reflects typical fen‑edge life, with local amenities, parish activities and built features that speak to its rural past and ongoing farming economy.
