Pribuzh

Pribuzh stood on the Plyussa as the centre of a church and tax district of the Novgorod lands. It appears in the survey of 1497–1498, and a later record names its Church of the Transfiguration. The survey of 1585–1586 describes a settlement below the churchyard, with a court of the tsar, a prison and the site of a former merchants' yard. Among its inhabitants were traders, a smith, a shoemaker and a ferryman. A stone Transfiguration church was consecrated in 1755.
