Wreningham No. 3 / Eiland / Eilanda / Nailyng / Nayland / Neilanda / Nelonde / Newland Mayland

Blomefield (1805-1810) writes: "W[reningham], As it is now, contains three whole parishes, and three manors, all joined in one, viz. Great Wreningham, or All Saints, Little Wreningham, or St. Mary, and Nelonde [...] Nelonde, Called Newland, Nayland, and Nailyng, and in Domesday Eiland," and names "William de Witton" its first recorded rector, in 1285. [...] When Norwich Domesday was made, Sir Robert son of Sir John de Thorp, was patron [...] but by the year 1418 the three parishes have a consolidated rectory under "Thomas Arteys of Refham, priest. [...] The church was demolished at the Reformation; it lies between Wreningham and Ashwellthorp, and is called the Old Churchyard." [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here demolished at the Reformation].
