About Wells-next-the-Sea
Wells-next-the-Sea is a small but characterful port and seaside town on the north Norfolk coast, with a working harbour, a long sandy beach famous for its colourful beach huts, and a high street lined with independent shops. The town's name is a slight misdirection — the harbour is now nearly a mile from the open sea, separated by extensive salt marshes. Wells has been a working port since at least the 14th century, and it still ships grain and supports a small fishing fleet. The harbour and the famous beach are connected by a narrow-gauge railway. The town is part of the North Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Many properties here are traditional flint and brick cottages, often used as second homes, which means regular handyman upkeep is essential.
