East Fleet

EAST FLEET, a small village, 3 miles S.W. from Weymouth. In November, 1824, a dreadful storm destroyed most of the Church and great part of this village; since this period a new and elegant Church and tower has been built by the Rev. G. Gould, the late vicar. This edifice is in the Gothic style: the east window contains a beautiful painting on glass, "the Recovery of the Widow's Son at Nain." The parish comprises about 1100 acres, and had in 1841, 165 inhabitants.
