EYWORTH Aieworde, Aisseworde (xi cent.) ; Eywurth (xiii cent.). Eyworth is a small parish of 1,253J acres on the Cambridgeshire border. Its south-eastern boundary is formed by the River Rhee. The highest land is in the west of the parish, about 170 ft. above sea level, and there is a general downward slope towards the east. Of the acreage of the parish 819 J is arable land, 358 permanent grass, and 11 woods and plantations.' The soil is principally clay, the subsoil clay ; the crops are wheat, barley, peas, and beans. The village is situated in the west central part of the parish on the road from Dunton to Wrestlingworth. After enter- ing the parish from the Dunton side this road begins to descend towards the vtllage, to the south of which a branch road on the east leads down to Thistly- grounds Farm, situated in the south of the parish. At the south end of the village a short distance to the east of the road lies the Church Farm, and close to it on the north is the church of All Saints. The Manor Farm is on the west of the road, which, still descend- ing somewhat, passes on to Wrestlingworth. The houses are for the most part on the west of the road, facing a wide uninclosed green, at the south end of which, and just to the north of the church, is a rect-. EvwoRTH Church from the South-east angular inclosure of early seventeenth-century brick- work, with small entrance doorways on the east and west, marking the site of what was evidently a build- ing of some importance.
