There is no mention of this hamlet in Blomefield's (1805-1810) chapter on the Hundred of North Erpingham. Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer (1870-1872) reports "a ruined church" in the hamlet of Repp. Pevsner & Wilson (1997) report: "In the garden [...] is the octagonal font bowl, supported on various fragments of masonry from the church." [cf. Index entry for Repps for the active church serving both Repps and Bastwick].
