"LODDON is a small but pleasant market-town, consisting chiefly of one long street, on the summit and acclivities of an eminence, rising from a rivulet, 10 miles S.E. of Norwich, 15 miles W.S.W. of Yarmouth, and 112 miles N.E. by N. of London. It gives name to this Hundred, and has in its parish 1,197 inhabitants, and 2,988 acres of land, belonging to many proprietors. . . . The market is held every Tuesday, for corn; and fairs, for stock, &c., on Easter Monday, and the first Monday after Nov. 22nd. A Hiring Session is held at Old Michaelmas; and Petty Sessions, at the Swan Inn . . . The CHURCH (Holy Trinity,) is a large and handsome fabric, consisting of a nave, aisles, chancel, and square tower, with six bells, erected in the reign of Henry VII., by Sir James Hobart. . . .The Bishop of Ely is appropriator of the great tithes, and patron of the vicarage, (not in charge) now enjoyed by the Rev. John Dawson Wrigglesworth, of Cambridge. The tithes were commuted in 1841; the vicarial for £300, and the rectorial for £520 per ann. The Revs. J. H. and E. B. Sparke, are lessees of the latter."
