SHOTTESHAM ST. MARY, or LOW SHOTTESHAM, comprises the parishes of St.
Mary, St. Martin, and St. Botolph, and is situated 5 miles from Norwich,
in Henstead hundred and union. The parish contained, in 1851, a
population of 352. The church of St. Mary is a small edifice, in good
condition; but St. Martin’s and St. Botolph’s have been in ruins for
several centuries. Their benefices, with the rectory of St. Martin, were
consolidated with Shottesham All Saints soon after the Reformation.
Charles Fellowes, M.A., is the incumbent. Shottesham Park is the seat of
Robert Fellowes, Esq., who is lord of the manor. A small school was
established in 1852, by Mrs. Fellowes, the average attendance at which is
52.
