The living is a rectory, in the archdeaconry of Colchester, and diocese of London, rated in the king's books at £16, 16. 0½., and in the patronage of Valentine Warren, Esq. The church, dedicated to St. George, is a handsome and regular edifice. Petty sessions for the division are held here once in five weeks, on Monday, alternately with Mistley, Manningtree, and Thorpe.
