The worst places to live in Norfolk
Don’t Live Here! I came to Hunstanton for a ‘peaceful retirement in a Victorian seaside town’. Built and designed from scratch by the Lord of the Manor – a ‘Mr Le Strange’. It has over the years evolved from the picturesque splendour of a retreat for the well heeled Victorians of London, seeking the health […]
I visited Great Yarmouth several times recently and hope never to have to return. Where the bleak, brown, hostile sea stops, bleak, hostile depressing streets start, with grim “amusement” arcades on the dilapidated front where it is impossible to imagine deriving any joy or amusement. The star attraction The star attraction it seems is a […]

Driving through Watton you’d think it’s just another generic Norfolkian Market Town, but to those who are unfortunate enough to end up moving here (especially when you have no choice in the matter) will end up quickly learning that is in fact the most backwards, xenophobic and boring piece of s**t “town” in Norfolk. The […]
I’ve lived in Great Yarmouth my entire life. What I’ve found is, the entire area and surrounding areas you have to pick out the best and the worst. You have your sh*t areas like GY, Southtown, Cobholm, Lowestoft, but there are some nice areas like Caister, Bradwell, Carlton and Belton. Gorleston is somewhere in between. […]
I had the dubious pleasure of being a resident of Dereham for 18 long years. In that time, Dereham went from being a bog standard market town to something akin to a rotting corpse full of apathy and yearning. The town slogan should be, “Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here”. Driving through the town […]

I have lived in this town all my life, and although I can say it is not the best place to visit in Norfolk, it most definitely is not the worst place to grow up in. It is an improving town (we now have a Costa wahey!), and the racism and discriminitive behaviour the town […]
Gayton village, one of the most picturesque places In Norfolk. Situated just outside King’s Lynn I was surprised at how well mannered people were, considering King’s Lynn was filled with ***** and ********* mainly from Gaywood, Fairstead, North Lynn and South Lynn. But Gayton was a quiet village. The Crown was a good little country […]
Whilst I admire greatly the efforts of my forebears, in whose writings on this website on Yarmouth and its equally ugly sister, Lowestoft, contain a great deal of truth and a good helping of humour, it seems to me that a new assessment be made of this poor wretch of a town. Some ten years […]
From the ex-cons living in the flats overlooking the train tracks, to the drug dens up the Retreat Estate, here in Downham (referred to by it’s Cockney and Essex population as Daaahhnum) we have many invaluable amenities. Come to the high street for a piss-poor selection of shopping destinations, from Peacocks to Savers – you […]

Ive lived here all my life and I hate it TBH. I’ll go forward in time order. During my childhood (I’m now 18 with no GCSEs by the way) I was thretend to death 3 times. twice by the 2 gangs that operate (with knives) and once by a VERY ****** council housed ***** with […]
I have recently moved to watton at first i thought it was ok and then i went out for a night down the pubs with some old mates from norwich and as soon as we said we where from norwich they started hitting us and chucking pints over us in the pub they where kicked out […]
Ah yes, I have unfortunately lived in this **** hole for 15 years. Okay it is not the worst place in the world, but I would say it’s not exactly the most pleasant of places. Kings Lynn is over run by ***** and their small mindedness. Lynnites have their very own walk and swagger, and […]
