In the account book of 1805 (DCN 20/1/2) there are some changes as follows: These no longer of the list: White Friars and Augustine Friars Norwich, Blackhurst, Wormegay, Fordham, Bruisyard, Henley: dues from priors or abbots of Sarrow (sic.), Flixton, West Dereham, Westacre, Castleacre, Charterhouse, Shouldham, Buckenham, Walsingham, Woodbridge, Sibton, Loyston (sic.), Bruisyard and masters of Thompson and Chapel in the Field, the church of St Mary Unburnt Norwich. These which were not listed in 1630 occur in 1805; Albourne Suffolk, Ashill, Buxton, Framsden Suffolk, Fressingfield Suffolk, Hevingham, Kirkton, St Margaret's Chapel [not said where], Snettisham, Therberton Suffolk, Wroxham, Wingfield Suffolk, Holkham, (but Hockham in DCN 20/3/5 is perhaps mistake for Holkham).
Note
(1) The 1680 list is interesting as giving details of the origins of the pensions etc.: by 1805 they are simply listed in alphabetical order and distinctions like 'the churchwardens of St Peter Mancroft' or 'vicar of St Stephens' are not given.
(2) Many pensions are recorded in the 1805 account book as 'never paid'.
(3) Although the tithe rent charges due from Buxton and from Hevingham and Marsham are listed in the 1805 account their status is different to the others; they are invariably listed in the Audit books among the Country Estate rates not as part of the pensions and portions account. For leases see DCN 49/9 and 29.
(4) From the 1850s the Dean and Chapter transferred many of its estates to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, receiving in return tithe rent charges of specified parishes. These are listed as DCN 50.
