Notice of changes in polling stations for the polling districts indicated below:


Cromer Town (East) KV1 / Suffield Park (NW) KW2
Merchants Place, Church Street (formerly St Johns Hall, Bond Street). Reasons - more convenient location for majority of electors affected and better disability access.

North Walsham Town MD2
The Sadlers Shop, Vicarage Street (formerly Community Centre, New Street). Reasons - more convenient location for vast majority of electors affected and reduces congestion at Community centre which accommodates all the voters of North Walsham East ward.

Paston MF1
Bacton Village Hall (formerly Paston Parish Hall). Reason - parish hall has been closed down and is being sold and there is no alternative suitable premise in the polling district. Bacton is considered the most suitable alternative as it serves the same district ward and county division as Paston, and the parking facilities there are better than the only other option in Mundesley.
