Linstead Parva
Linstead Parva is a small village and civil parish in the East Suffolk district of Suffolk in eastern England. It has a small but notable 13th-century parish church, still in regular use. The village pub, The Greyhound, was already established and trading when referenced in 1874, but it closed permanently in March 1955, and is now a private dwelling. Population In 2005 its population was 90. This had increased significantly to 132 at the 2011 Census, a 47% increase, caused by the combination of population statistics in 2011 for both Linsteads (Parva and Magna). In true terms, the population size of the village is stable. Although "Parva" means smaller, Linstead Parva is today significantly larger than neighbouring Linstead Magna, which is now just a satellite hamlet. Ecclesiastical parish The parish church of Linstead (Parva and Magna) is in Linstead Parva, and dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch, an early Christian martyr. The 13th-century church building is well maintaine ...
