The Church (St. Mary,) is a large edifice, with a square tower; and the benefice is a rectory, valued in the King's Book at £12.2s.8d., and in 1831 at £298, in the gift of T.

The parishioners have commonright on the green (5A.,) and the poor have a house and 2R. of land, bequeathed by a Mr. Green, and now let for £12 a year, which is applied with the poor-rates. There is a small Independent Chapel here, in which the Rev. James Matthews, of Shipdham officiates."
