King's Lynn - Saturday Market

In Saturday Market, near the river, is the principal church of King's Lynn, St Margaret's, with massive west towers which give it almost the air of a cathedral. It was built by the bishop of Norwich in the 12th century, when the town was known as Bishop's Lynn. The west front is particularly fine. It contains two very fine brasses, probably of Flemish workmanship. These magnificent 14th century pieces represent a vintage scene and a peacock feast (Peacock Brass).
