The Church of St. Andrew is noted in Armstrong (1781) and in Blomefield (1805-1810) after him, as one of three parishes in Rockland [aka Rockland Toft]: "St. Andrew's parish, is often named in evidences, about Edward the Third's time [i.e., 1327-1377], Toft, without any other addition [...] the church of St. Andrew falling into decay, and standing not above a furlong eastward from All-Saints, was suffered to dilapidate".
