Not illustrated. 1830 edition. Excerpt: ...founded by John Lucas, of Greenhithe, who, in the 19th of Edward III. obtained the king's licence to assign over a ipiece of ground, and twenty acres of pasture in this parish, to a chaplain, for the celebration of divine offices daily in the chapel, in honour of the Virgin.

Above the village the soil rises still higher, being covered with a large tract of woodland, the earth of which is a stiff clay.
