Excerpt from Thorpe a Quiet English Town, and Human Life Therein
Quiet, ancient, and thriving is the look of Thorpe. It is a small place, and almost consists of one long street; at one end of which is a large square, with a market-cross in the middle of it, and with St. John"s Church on one of its sides. At the other end of the long street is the Presbyterian Chapel, embowered in trees. There is a large graveyard round it. And on one side of the graveyard, in a garden, stands the Parsonage. In the long street, about the middle, are the almshouses for the widows of decayed tradesmen and farmers. They form three sides of a square, and are only one story in height.
