The CHURCH (All Saints) is a small fabric, comprising nave, chancel, south porch, and square tower with one bell. The rectory, which was valued in the King's Book at £6 6s. 8d., is now consolidated with that of Tatterford.
The School, a neat brick and flint building, with teacher's residence attached, was erected in 1857 at a cost of £700, and is attended by about thirty children.
The poor have £2 12s. a year, left by John Tinkler in 1713; and the interest of £50 left by Samuel Nutt, in 1762. The two cottages left by Diana Drury have been sold, and the money, with the rest of the charities, has been invested in consols.
POST OFFICE at Mr. J. Walker's. Letters arrive at 9 a.m., and are despatched at 4 p.m., via Fakenham. East Rudham is the nearest Money Order Office.
