the manor of Barrard's, formerly sir William Spring's, and now Robert Bower, esq., the manor of Furneux, late Robert Barwell's gent. and now sir Robert Pocklington's, knight, and the manor of Whatfield-Hall, formerly William Vesey's, gent. (of whom there is a good monument of white marble in the church) and lately Wm. Mayhew's gent, but now of Mrs. Cooke. Whatfield, or Wheatfield is chiefly remarkable for growing the most excellent seed wheat, from which circumstance the name perhaps may be derived. The Rev. John Clubbe was rector of this parish, and among other things published in 1758, "The History and Antiquities of the ancient Villa of Wheatfield, in the County of Suffolk." In this he endeavours to ridicule Morant, the historian of Colchester, and antiquarians in general, and not without some portion of success. This parish contains 326 inhabitants.
