Norfolk

The area around Gorleston-on-Sea.

Gorleston sits on the south bank of the Yare opposite Great Yarmouth, a quieter resort with a broad sandy beach and harbour mouth, and more residential than its neighbour. The James Paget Hospital and offshore energy work are big local employers. Housing runs from Edwardian seafront terraces to large post-war estates and newer building towards Bradwell. Locals think of Gorleston as its own place, so a trade site should name it directly rather than folding it under Yarmouth.

Inside Great Yarmouth, the closest place is Great Yarmouth (3 miles). Elsewhere in Norfolk: Loddon (11 miles), Stalham (17 miles) and Thorpe St Andrew (17 miles). Just over the council boundary, Lowestoft (7 miles) and Carlton Colville (9 miles) are close by. Further out, Beccles (11 miles) and Bungay (15 miles) are within commuting distance. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.

Inside Gorleston-on-Sea, the site can name areas such as Bradwell, Southtown, Hopton-on-Sea, Belton and Burgh Castle.

Gorleston-on-Sea addresses fall in the NR postcode area, about 259 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
