a very large village of Essex in England, adjoining to Braintree, from which it is separated only by a small stream. Its church is a deanery, and very large; and there are here two or three meeting houses; but the market is kept at Braintree. In both parishes there are about 1500 houses, which in general are but indifferent, and the streets narrow and badly paved. There is a large manufactory of baize, chiefly for exportation. It is 42 miles north-east of London.
