A wired circuit board is provided having enhanced reliability of electrical connection between a metal substrate and a shield layer to achieve significant noise reduction reliably. An insulating base layer is formed on the metal substrate, while resin layers are formed on the metal substrate with a predetermined space provided from the both widthwise sides of the insulating base layer. A conductor layer is formed having a predetermined wired circuit pattern on the insulating base layer. Thereafter, an insulating cover layer is formed on the insulating base layer in such a manner as to cover the conductor layer. Then, a shield layer is laminated on the metal substrate to cover the insulating cover layer and also is put in close contact with the resin layers at end portions thereof by a vacuum film-forming method or by plating.
