"MORLEY ST. BOTOLPH, 3 miles W.S.W. of Wymondham, has in its parish 328 souls, and 819 acres of land, mostly belonging to Miss Maria Morse, of Norwich, and lying in the manor of Shadwells, or Cockerills, in Morley. The Church has a large tower and three bells, and the living is a rectory, valued in the King's Book at £14. 11s. 5½d., and in 1831 at £595, with the curacy of Morley St. Peter annexed to it, in the patronage and incumbency of the Rev. Chas. Beauchamp Cooper. The tithes of the two parishes were commuted in 1840 for £580 per annum. The rector greatly enlarged and beautified the Rectory House, about twelve years ago. He pays for the education of twelve children at the National School." [William White, History, Gazetteer, and Directory of Norfolk (1845) - Transcription copyright © Pat Newby]

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.
