It’s a few years since I’ve had to worry about parking up in Kings Lynn, but used to do it regularly and didn’t get any problems.
I used to park up on the Hardwick road Ind Est. Go right at the lights as you come off the roundabout going into the town.
Turn right at the end of Scania way and then left at the end of Oldmedow rd and and go to the endRollesby road, it was always quiet down that way.
There was also a bit of waste land they called a lorry park further down Hardwick road over the bridge and on the left before you got the the roundabout.

Pleased to help :smiley: As I said it’s a few years since I’ve had to park up there. 2002 maybe the last time, hopefully it’s okay to park there if not try the lorry park if it’s still there as it is only round the corner from Wisbech Road.

I parked up on Hamlin Way on the Ind Est just off the the A10/A47 roundabout about 4 months ago. There weren’t many trucks parked up on there, but I didn’t have any probs.
