Brief description
"A patchwork church
This delightful country church is surrounded on all sides by flat Essex farmland. The nave is Norman, the chancel is from around 1300, and the timber-framed porch is sixteenth century. The colourful tapestry of different building materials in the tall fifteenth-century tower gives it a marvellous patchwork texture.
There is an octagonal font, carved with charmingly rustic emblems of the four Evangelists and Tudor roses. Two stained glass windows commemorate the martyred King Charles I and Archbishop Laud."
