It is situated on the river Corve, and contains Great and Little Sutton, Westhorpe, Lawton, Penton, Upper and Lower Park, Poston, Middlethorpe, Sparchford, Corfton, Earnstrey Park, and Burwood. The living is a vicarage* in the diocese of Hereford, value with the donative curacy of Westhorpe, £358, in the patronage of the dean and chapter. The church, dedicated to St. Peter, is in the early English style. There is a National school for both sexes, and a chapel-of-ease at Westhorpe. The charities produce £44 per annum, chiefly the bequest of Mary Valentine, in 1822. There is a large encampment called Corfton Camps, and traces of the alien priory once belonging to the Abbot of Seez, in Normandy."[Transcribed from The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland 1868 by Colin Hinson ©2015]
