FLITCHAM A small west Norfolk village, Flitcham is situated 7 miles north east of King's Lynn and straddles the B1153, just to the north of the A148 Fakenham Road at Hillington.

The parish is known as Flitcham cum Appleton - although the latter now consists of a farm and a few cottages, whilst Appleton church is just a ruin.

Along with the villages of Anmer, West Newton, Wolferton and Shernborne, it forms part of the Royal Sandringham Estate and the original carved village sign was a gift of King George V in 1912.

Flitcham School and many of the cottages are built in the very attractive local "Carrstone". This distinctive brown stone is seen over a relatively small area of west Norfolk only. The village has a strong community with a vibrant community centre and social club housed in the old Bell public house which is also home for various clubs including Good Companions, Keep Fit, meal nights, folk nights and the village darts and dominoes teams. Flitcham has a thriving village school which also runs a mother and toddler group.

Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King's Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.
