info for over night truck parking between my 1st drop Ely, last drop kings lynn Req`d
as you run into kings lynn town centre from the a47 (and i think a10?)junction , the one with the new flyover above the island. keep the soup place on your left hand side and as you go over a hump back bridge theres a council truck park on your left hand side just before you get to the island with the arch on the right hand side.
its a bit of rough ground but i have stayed on it before and got no hassle,also about a 5 minute walk from the town centre.
theres also a couple of places on the a17
