"FRAMINGHAM-EARL, a small parish of dispersed dwellings, 4 miles S.E. by S. of Norwich, has only 100 inhabitants, and 611A. of land, belonging to several proprietors, the largest of whom is G.B.L. Knight, Esq., who has a neat mansion here, with a woody lawn; but the Earl of Rosebery is lord of the manor. Mr Knight's estate belonged to the late eminent Edward Rigby, M.D., who died in 1822, after practising as a surgeon in Norwich since 1769, and publishing several excellent medical works. The CHURCH (St. Andrew,) is a small edifice, with a round tower. The living is a discharged rectory, valued in the King's Book at £3. 6s. 8d., and is consolidated with Bixley" [William White, History, Gazetteer, and Directory of Norfolk (1845) - Transcription copyright © Pat Newby]
