CHILDERDITCH is a small parish of scattered houses, 3 miles S.S.E. of Brentwood, containing 247 souls, and 1570 acres of land, mostly belonging to Lord Petre, the lord of the manors of Childerditch Hall and Tillingham Hall, the latter of which extends into South Weald parish .
The Church (All Saints and St. Faith,) is a small brick building, on an eminence, with a wooden belfry and shingled spire. The living is a discharged vicarage, valued in K.B. at £8, and in 1831 at £162. Lord Petre is patron, and owner of the great tithes, and the Rev. J. H. Lewis, M.A., is the incumbent, and has a good residence, 17A. of glebe, and about £170 a year in lieu of small tithes.
Here is a National School, built in 1844. J. B. Mann, R. W. Champion, and several smaller owners, have estates in the parish.
