STANHOE, a scattered village, 2 miles E. of Docking, and 4 miles S.S.W. of Burnham Market, has in its fertile and well cultivated parish 445 souls, and 1,413 acres of land, mostly the property of Derick Hoste and John Calthrop, Esqrs.; the former of whom is lord of the manor, and the latter resides at Stanhoe Hall, a neat mansion with pleasant grounds.

Here are the remains of an ancient cross; and in Chapel-field are traces of the foundations of a religious house.

The CHURCH (All Saints,) has a lofty tower, and the living is a rectory, valued in the King's Book at £16, and in 1831 at £360. D. Hoste, Esq., is patron, and the Rev. Daniel Everard, M.A., of Burnham, is the incumbent, for whom the Rev. E.B. Everard officiates. The inhabitants of Barwick attend the church here, from which the parish is sometimes called Stanhoe-with-Barwick.

The Wesleyans have a chapel here, built in 1837.

John Wright, in 1802, left 3A. of land, now let for £7 10s. a year, which is applied in schooling poor children of Stanhoe.
