ALDRINGHAM, a parish in the hundred of BLYTHING, county of SUFFOLK, 2 miles (N. by W.) from Aidborough, containing, with the hamlet of Thorpe, 315 inhabitants. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the archdeaconry of Suffolk, and diocese of Norwich, endowed with £ 1000 royal bounty, and in the patronage of Lord Huntingfield. The church is dedicated to St. Andrew. There is a place of worship for Particular Baptists. A market was formerly held here, which has fallen into disuse: there is a small fair on St. Andrew's day.
