In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Lothingland like this:

LOTHINGLAND, a hundred in Suffolk; united to MUTFORD, which see. It lies between the river Waveney and the coast; is bounded on the S by Lothingland lake; and is nearly all insulated. Lothingland lake is an inlet which has been deepened, and forms the upper part of Lowestoft harbour.
