BARNARDISTON in 1844, is a scattered village, about 5 miles N.W. of Clare, and N.E. by E. of Haverhill, has in its parish 1130 acres of fertile land, and 217 inhabitants, including Monks-Risbridge, an Extra-parochial farm of 85 acres, and 10 souls, 1 1/2 mile N. of the village, belonging to William Turner, Esq., and occupied by Mr. Simon Golding. Barnardiston gave name to a family whose several branches had seats at Kedington, Brightwell, Wyverston, and other places. They held the manor till the latter part of last century, but it is now held by Mark Teverson, Esq. A large portion of the soil belongs to other proprietors, some of whom are residents. Monks-Risbridge was given by Thomas de Woodstock, Earl of Buckingham and Duke of Gloucester, (sixth son of Edward III.) to Pleshy College, in Essex. The Church (All Saints) is a neat fabric, with a tower and five bells. The rectory, valued in K.B. at £7. 10s. 5d., and in 1835 at £191, is in the patronage and incumbency of the Rev. Val. Ellis, for whom the Rev. William Syer officiates. The poor parishioners have nearly an acre of land let for 20s. a-year; and they ought to have a share of Vernon's Gift,. as noticed with Great Wratting.
