FRAMINGHAMS, two pretty and neatly-wooded parishes, called FRAMINGHAM PIGOT and FRAMINGHAM EARL, the latter seated 4 miles south-east of Norwich, and the former extending one mile further south-eastward. They are agricultural villages, possessing separate churches, both dedicated to St. Andrew. The Earl of Roseberry is lord of the manor. The land belongs to several owners, of whom G. B. Leak Knight, Esq., W. Jecks, Esq., and G. H. Christie, Esq., are the largest. The living of Framingham Pigot is in the gift of the Bishop of Norwich, and the incumbent is the Rev. William Henry Plume, B.A. Framingham Earl is a rectory, annexed to that of Bixley, joint annual value £608, in the gift of the incumbent, the Rev. Charles David Brereton, M.A.; his curate is the Rev. Godfrey John Bird. There is a small Baptist chapel in Framingham Pigot, and a National school in Framingham Earl; also a Wesleyan chapel. The population of Framingham Earl, in 1851, was 111, and Framingham Pigot, 345. The old church at Framingham Pigot is now replaced by a handsome edifice in the Early English style, from designs by Mr. Thomas Loyd, of Norwich. FRAMINGHAM EARL. PRIVATE RESIDENTS. Bird, Rev.
