With Covid hitting clubs at our level particularly hard,Kings Lynn included,  it is fair to say that they have struggled on the pitch this season, but Dave Challinor will have no illusions that his team will have to produce the goods for 90 odd minutes on 22 March to avoid an unwanted reverse!

 Kings Lynn FC  occupied the Walks from 1881, and from having to erect  canvass sheeting around the ground in 1892 to stop non payers watching games, and staging a game under an  early floodlighting system (  v Wisbech)in 1893  the Walks now has a capacity of 8000 with 1200 of them seated!

A genuine football ground with not a hint of plastic palace about it- hedgegrower cannot wait to get there !

Decent real ale`s can be found at several hostelries , most notably a couple just 0.2 of a mile from the ground:-

 

First off on Goodwins Road ( PE30 5QX) is the Stuart House Hotel-

 



 

Then equidistant on Windsor Road we recommend the beautifully names ` Live & Let Live` ( PE30 5PL)
