Parish church

Chediston has a parish church, dedicated to St Mary. The bulk of the current building dates from the 13th century and the 15th century, although there are traces of Norman stonework, and some Victorian restoration features, including much of the glass.^[2]

History

Chediston, mentioned in the Doomsday book 1086^[3] also known as Cedestan, Cheddeston, Sedestane and other variations is thought to take its name from Saint Cedd (Cedd's town).^[4] Another possibility is that Cedd preached from a large glacial erattic stone (Cedd's stone) which can still be seen at Rockstone in Chediston. The parish was once administered by the Augustinian Order, based in Pentney Norfolk, along with four other parishes.^[5]

Chediston Green

There is a dispersed settlement at Chediston Green lying about half a mile away from the church to the north.

Notable residents
