In this video we explore the market and port town of Kings Lynn. It's a place filled with history, formerly known as Bishops Lynn but renamed by no other than Henry VIII. Home to legendary seafarers like Captain George Vancouver, a true pioneer and explorer. It is highly likely that Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson would have used it as a base for his journeys too, since he lived up the road at Burnham Market. And, as is often the case with locations steeped in history...there are some great storied to be found here too...like the tale of the witch with an exploding heart.

I have split the video up into chapters so that, at any point you can find out where you are in the town. You can use this feature by hovering your cursor over the timeline at the bottom of your screen
