Corringham • St Laurence

Corringham • St Laurence (photo Ashley Taylor)

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.
