Grimston, Norfolk

Grimston is a village and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk, approximately 6 miles north-east of King's Lynn.

The village was built on a spring line and a Roman villa was found near Watery Lane in the late 19th century.

[3] Subsequently, Roman villas were found in the neighbouring villages of Gayton Thorpe and Well Hall to the south and Congham and Appleton to the north.

Grimston, and particularly the nearby hamlet of Pott Row were quite significant centres of pottery production from the 11th to 16th centuries, and important suppliers of this to Scandinavia.

The Grade I listed Church of St Botolph has late Saxon or early Norman origins, largely extended in the 14th and 15th centuries.
