COLNEIS HUNDRED
Is in the Deanery to which it gives name, in the Archdeaconry of Suffolk,
and in Woodbridge Union. It is one of the smallest divisions of Suffolk, being
only from four to five miles in breadth, but extending about ten miles S.E. from
the liberty of Ipswich, along the north, east bank of the river Orwell, to the
ocean, where it terminates in the cliffs of Felixstow, Walton, and Landguard
Fort. It is bounded on the east by the river Deben, and on the north by Carlford
Hundred; and comprises 4812 inhabitants, and about 20,000 acres of land, mostly
a sandy but fertile loam, encompassed on three sides by the tides of the Ocean,
the Orwell, and the Deben. Exclusive of several small extra-parochial places, it
is divided into ten parishes, of which the following is an enumeration, shewing
their territorial extent, and their population in 1851. Mr. Geo. Cobbold, of
Trimley St Martin, is the high constable.
