Wolferton parish sits on Norfolk's west, Wash, coast to the north of King's Lynn and west of the busy A149 coastal road. A very lightly populated area even today this was always a parish with a small number of parishioners and most devoted to agriculture in various forms. What passes for a village centre, a small group of loosely packed farmhouses sits by the dead-end road that connects the A149 and the church.

St Peter's is, I feel, one of Norfolk's most picturesquely sited churches, perched high above the Wash on a sandy bluff and surrounded by wind-blasted pines. The church dates back to the 13th and 14th century but was much restored for the Victorian Prince of Wales. The fabric makes much use of the local umbrous carrstone imparting a lovely glow when lit by the setting sun.
