Norfolk - Wellingham

Francis White's History, Gazetteer, and Directory, of Norfolk 1854, p. 799

WELLINGHAM, a small parish, 6 miles S.S.W. of Fakenham, has 32 houses, 163 souls, and 1,050 acres of land, chiefly the property of the Earl of Leicester ; but Mr. B. Norton has also an estate here. The former is lord of the manor and patron of the Church, which is dedicated to St. Andrew, and is a vicarage, consolidated with Tittleshall-cum-Godwick, and valued in the King's book at £5 6s. 8d. The Fuel allotment, awarded in 1809, is 37a. 20p., of which 10a. is let for £16 and the poor cut turf on the remainder.
