Kirton Parish

Kirton
Kirkton, Kenetuna, Kalletuna, or Kirketuna

The Dukes of Norfolk were anciently patrons of this living, and probably owners of the lordship; the former has been in the Crown since the time of King Henry VIII.

The Rev. John Edgar, of Felixstow, is the present rector of this parish.

CHARITIES. An allotment of somewhat more than four acres, was awarded under an Inclosure Act, passed in the 45th Geo. III., to the lord of the manor, the rector, churchwardens, and overseers, as trustees, with power to let the land; the produce thereof to be distributed in coals, or other fuel, among the poor.
