B. Boileau, lord of the manor and owner of the hall, now a farm house; and J. T. G. Browne, Esq., lord of Williams and Earls manors. The Church (All Saints,) has a square tower and five bells, and was rebuilt about 1500.

William Cobbold is incumbent, and Mrs. Warren, who has a neat residence here, is the patroness.
