dbo:abstract
  • Gaywood ist ein Stadtteil von King’s Lynn in Norfolk und ein Civil parish. Ursprünglich war er dem zugeordnet, bevor er 1935 dem Borough of King's Lynn zugerechnet wurde. Seit 1974 ist er, wie die gesamte Stadt King's Lynn, Teil des Verwaltungsbezirks King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. John de Gray, Bischof von Norwich, errichtete auf dem heutigen Stadtgebiet einen mittelalterlichen Palast, an dessen Stelle die Familie Bagge im späten 19. Jahrhundert mit Gaywood Hall ihren Stammsitz baute. Das Herrenhaus beherbergte später das King's Lynn Technical College. Die von Anglikanern und Methodisten gemeinsam genutzte St Faith Church wurde in den 1920er-Jahren von Walter Caroe erbaut. Die Infrastruktur des Stadtteils ist mit verschiedenen Schulen, Supermärkten und kleineren Läden gut ausgebaut. (de)
  • Gaywood is an eastern area of the town of King's Lynn, Norfolk, England. Previously a civil parish in Freebridge Lynn Rural District, Gaywood became part of the borough of King's Lynn in 1935. Gaywood Hall, the seat of the Bagge baronets in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, was built on the site of a mediaeval palace of a Bishop of Norwich, John de Gray. The house later became part of King's Lynn Technical College. The church of St Faith is in the Early English style, restored by Walter Caroe in the 1920s; the church is now shared by a partnership of Anglican and Methodist congregations. According to William White's History, Gazetteer and Directory of Norfolk (1883), Gaywood was in the late 19th century a "considerable village" with a population of 805. The population expanded significantly in the 1960s after King's Lynn became an overflow town for London in 1962 and housing estates were built here and nearby in North and South Wootton. Gaywood is now a suburb of King's Lynn. There are several schools in the Gaywood area; these include Gaywood Primary School, St Martha's Catholic Primary School, King's Oak Academy (formerly Howard Infant and Nursery School) Harry Kane Junior School, King Edward VII School and King's Lynn Academy (formerly Gaywood Park High School). The Gaywood area has a wide variety of local shops, including a Tesco supermarket, Aldi store, a launderette, several cafes and various takeaways. The Gaywood Church Rooms are used as a meeting place for many different groups, including Gaywood Babies and Toddlers Group. It also used to be the home of the Gaywood Methodist Playgroup (established in 1968), but this closed for the final time in July 2016, due to a lack of children attending and ever increasing costs. The Gaywood Park is a large open area of land which is used for activities such as football, cricket and dog-walking, as well as a weekly Sunday Market and car boot sale. It is also the site of the Gaywood Community Centre, the Gaywood Park Bowls club and the Gayton Road Cemetery, which are all accessible via the unmarked 'Cemetery Drive' road which does not show on any of the online maps for the area.
