A very small agricultural village and parish in Blofield hundred, with
587 acres of rich land, situated 2 miles from Brundall station, and 5
miles E. of Norwich. Principal owners, John Penrice, Esq., and Rev. C.
Penrice. The church (St. Margaret) is a plain building, and contains
nothing worthy of remark. The rectory, of small value, consolidated with
Little Plumstead and Brundall, is enjoyed by the patron, the Rev. Charles
Penrice, who resides at Little Plumstead. Two farm houses and one mill,
with a few cottages, form the village; and the population, in 1851, was
120.
