"BINTREE, or BINTRY, on an eminence, 6 miles W. by N. of Reepham, is a village and parish, containing 409 souls, and 1455A. 28P. of land, mostly the property of Lady J. Townshend, (who has a neat residence here called Yarrow House,) Lord Hastings, T. Robson, Esq., and the Earl of Leicester. The latter is lord of the manor, which was purchased by Lord Chief Justice Coke, in 1608, for £625. The Church (St. Swithin,) is an ancient fabric, but the chancel was rebuilt in 1806. The rectory, valued in the King's Book at £10, has 13A. 3R. of glebe, and the yearly rent of £418. 7s. 4d. awarded in 1844, in lieu of tithes. It is united with that of Themelthorpe (£135 per annum, and 19A. of glebe,) in the gift of Lord Hastings, and incumbency of the Rev. Augustus Dashwood, of Thornage."

There may be more people living in detached parts of the parish (if there were any) and, if so, the number may or may not be included in the figures above. It is quite difficult to be sure from the population tables.
