E. by E.) from Harlow, comprising the townships of Brumsend-quarter, Heath-quarter, Town-quarter, and Woodrow-quarter, and containing 1693 inhabitants. The living is a discharged vicarage, in the jurisdiction of the Commissary of Essex and Herts, concurrently with the Consistorial Court of the Bishop of London, rated in the king's books at £7. 11., and in the patronage of the Master and Fellows of Trinity College Cambridge.
