Real property, £962. Pop., 226. Houses, 46. The property is much subdivided. A Benedictine or Cluniac priory, a cell to Montacute in Somerset, was here as early as the time of Richard I.; and went, at the dissolution, to Laurence Courtney. ...


The living is a rectory in the diocese of Exeter. Value, £125.* Patrons, the Dowager Lady Molesworth and the Rev. R. Rawle. The church is a fine ancient structnre; consists of nave, chancel, N transept, and S aisle, with S porch and W tower; was, for years, in very bad condition; and, in 1865, was about to be restored. There are a Bryanite chapel and a national school.
