This section shows the patronage status of the benefice in 1291-2, the date of the taxatio, as much as can be found in contemporary or near-contemporary sources. The line includes the type of patronage: ecclesiastical, monastic or secular; the name of the patron; and for monastic patrons, the order of their religious house. If the patronage is ecclesiastical or monastic, then it may be an appropriated church. This is shown by the "If Appropriated" line below. | |||||||||

1 We know little about this the main church, dedicated to St Nicholas, of a parish which has been largely lost by coastal erosion. Still standing in 1638, it disappeared in the next few decades. The last institution to it was in 1666. H.M.Cautley, Suffolk Churches and their Treasures (5th edn, Woodbridge, 1982) p.436 2 The church here was valued in the 'Snailwell' listing of perhaps 1276 at Lsd2.13.4 (though this is strangely low and may be an error: it had been valued at Lsd5.0.0. in the Norwich assessment of 1254): BL Harl. 1005 fo. 33v (HudsonNorTax 144).
