Plumstead has an entry in the [[Domesday Book]] of 1085. In the great book Plumstead is recorded by the names Plumestead. The main landholder was William de Warenne
 
The parish church of Saint Michael was once much larger than it is today. On the south side of the building the low aisle has been demolished, and the clerestory filled in.. The church's most notable feature is its collection of medieval and continental glass which came from Catton Hall, Norwich, in 1952. There are some 15th century figures in the east window and 16th century glass in the south windows. The chancel is c.1300 and the tower late 14th century.
