A very different Georgian style church with medieval tower and a magnificent interior. The altar piece is a copy of the Da Vinci painting of The Last Supper. The organ is a 3 manual Walker (1906). See too, the beautiful stained glass and a display depicting connections with the Pilgrim Fathers as well as John Wesley and his family.

Corringham • St Laurence

There has been a church on this site well over 1,000 years older than the British monarchy. It is 140 years since Bodley & Garner spread gold dust and beautified this Grade I church paid for by Mary Beckett. The parish registers will be made available. Come and see the stone coffin found under the altar in 1883/84. We shall have a churchyard tour weather permitting. The refreshments and lunches are Michelin star quality! A warm welcome awaits you.

Blyton • St Martin

Blyton church has an impressive display of the flags of the allies in WWI. They hang above arcades 6 and 7 centuries old. The chancel, although much rebuilt last century, has its original East window of about 1300, its old piscina and aumbry and a 15th century window and part of the old rood beam is still over the arch. The font, with carved panels and embattled top, is a handsome example of 15th century craftsmanship.
