"NEATISHEAD, 10 miles N.E. of Norwich, is a large village and parish, containing 697 inhabitants, and about 1905 acres of land. This manor was given by Canute, the Dane, to his Abbey of St. Bennet's at Holm, so that the Bishop of Norwich is now patron of the church, impropriator of the great tithes, and lord of the manor; but a great part of the soil belongs to his lessee, Sir J.H. Preston; besides whom here are several smaller proprietors. The CHURCH (St. Peter) is a small edifice with a belfry, being only the chancel of the original building, which was extensive, and had a lofty tower and spire of the age of Edward IV. A new gallery was erected by subscription in 1840. Over the present west door are some remains of rich tabernacle work, which originally decorated a monument of one of the Cubitt family. The vicarage, valued in the King's Book at £3. 13s. 1½d., and in 1831, at £201, has 46A. of glebe, and is now enjoyed by the Rev. John Heaton Champion de Crespigny."
