[1] The name of the parish was "Notestede" in the Domesday Book, but by the 18th century although formally spelled "Nutsted" it was at this time commonly called Nursted.

[3] It is at present in the civil parish of Meopham, which is divided into three wards, one of which bears the name "Hook Green and Nurstead".

[4] A quarter of a mile north of the church is Nurstead Court, one of the most famous small medieval houses in the country.

[7] A minor exception was Zimmermans a private bungalow built between 1928 and 1930 on 3/4 acre of land purchased from Nurstead Court Estate.

This land was next to the border with Cobham and was not transferred into Meopham in 1963,[8] as indicated in 2000 when a boundary marker was erected on White Post Lane.
