The parish of East Allington, under St James Church (restored in 1855), received a benefice which was combined with that of Sedgebrook, and included {{convert|167|acre|km2|2}} of glebe. The feast day for both Allington parishes was on Old Michaelmas Day. A National School had been built in 1848 by the lord of the manor, and in 1858 a Primitive Methodist chapel was built for £250.
