Steel City Snapper photography
35mm, medium format and large format film photography (with the odd bit of digital every now and then…)
A view of King’s Lyn Minster standing above the foreground buildings. It looks oddly shaped due to the two towers being different sizes.

You may need to click on the picture to see it larger, but there’s a clue there to let you see exactly where I was standing when I took this photo. 🙂

When I visited King’s Lynn, although there were plenty of people about, and lots of traffic, the roads close to the quayside were often devoid of pedestrians and traffic. Not completely empty, but quiet enough that it was easy to bide my time and get a photograph of the street scenes without anyone around.

I wonder what used to stand here, beside this (I presume) wharf building? You can see where it once stood, the whitewashed outline of it’s gable tattooed on the structure it shared space with.
I’m sure someone familiar with King’s Lynn would know.

This attractive old building is the Custom House in King’s Lynn, Norfolk. It dates all the way back to 1683 where it was originally a merchant’s exchange. It took on the role of Custom House in the 1700s and continued to do so through to 1989. The bottom of the building used to be an open arcade serving as a meeting place for merchants, the upper part of the building supported by supported by columns, but the arches have since been filled in, and the columns replaced by masonry.
