Norton Mandeville 1863 Whites directory
NORTON-MANDEVILLE parish has only 135 souls, and 727A. 1R. 39p. of land, though the village is situated more than a
mile E. of the church, on the Chelmsford and Epping road, 4 miles E. of Chipping Ongar. At the Domesday Survey it belonged to Hamo Dapifer. It is now in two manors, viz., Norton-Mandeville, which was held by the Mandeville family, but was purchased in 1480, by Merton College, Oxford, to which it still belongs; and Newarks Norton, which extends into High Ongar, and belongs to J. B. Stane, Esq.
The Church (All Saints) is a small ancient edifice, with a wooden belfrey, and was restored in 1860. Capel Cure, Esq. , is now the impropriator, and also patron of the perpetual curacy, which was valued in 1831 at only £83, and has no parsonage house. It has about 30A. of land at Canewdon, and 10A. at Radley Green, which was mostly purchased with benefaction money, and a grant from Queen Anne’s Bounty, in 1743.
The Rev. Fredk. Adrian Scroop Fane, of Kelvedon Hatch, is the incumbent.
