Heapham • All Saints

Richard Croft, All Saints' church, CC BY-SA 2.0

On entry to the church path, very visible on the tower is a keyhole window. Set in a picturesque setting, this delightful church has the remains of a Saxon cross very close to the south facing door as well as having features of Norman arches. 

A very interesting feature are the two upside faces carved out on one of the pillars.

There is graffiti dating between 11th and 13th century. Also, a Norman tub font.

One of only five churches in the country dedicated to St Radegund. It originated from the 13th & 14th centuries but archaeologists found evidence of an Anglo Saxon Church. Parts were rebuilt in 1797 and at the beginning of the 20th century.

Corringham • St Laurence

A church has stood on this site for over 1,000 years. 

In the late 19th century under the influence of the Oxford Movement two sisters; Mary Beckett and Elizabeth, Lady Bacon engaged G F Bodley and Thomas Garner to both restore and recapture the ‘beauty of holiness’, a glimpse of heaven! These two architects scattered gold dust and raised this church to great heights. 

The church contains stained glass by Wailes Kempe and Christopher Whall. 

The Lady Chapel has been given over to Community Outreach, increasing footfall and funds to upkeep this Grade I listed church. 

With a reputation for serving high quality light refreshments and lunches a warm welcome awaits you.
