St. Stephen’s Chapel

Reviewed By Duppity - Braintree, United Kingdom

A beautiful atmospheric building nested on the southernmost edge of Suffolk. Much is made of St Edmund's cruel death and later his burial at Bury St Edmunds but the regal story started here at Bures. In 855AD a procession left from the nearby royal palace and made its way to the point where the young Edmund was crowned. A large stone marks the spot where Bishop Humbert placed the crown of the king of East Anglia on the fifteen year old's head. Sadly fifteen years later the same bishop was executed within minutes of Edmund by the Vikings at what is believed to be Hoxne. The St Stephen's chapel building is fascinating and somehow feels right and just like stepping back in time. Its restoration is subtle although it's known that the three tombs are made up of fragments from seven tombs from Earls Colne priory. The building has suffered over the years. When its restoration was completed in 1218 it was consecrated by Stephen Langton, Archbishop of Canterbury. Amazingly three years before Archbishop Langton stood at the head of the barons at Runnymede compelling King John to sign the Magna Carta, the foundation of modern democracy.

St Peter, Wenhaston

Reviewed By 417juliep

The unique feature of this church is the Wenhaston Doom dating from the late C15th. Now in a new position, lower down in the church so that you can get a better view, it's a series of wooden boards containing the paintings of a Crucifix surrounded by the Virgin Mary, St John and the Day of Judgement. Amazing

St Edmund's Church

Reviewed By 264kennethn - Lingfield, United Kingdom

We loved the architecture with the amazing flint stone work. What a shame that many of the stained-glass windows were lost in World War II. But, on the other hand it was nice to be in such a light church. We were lucky to meet the Rector who told us quite a bit about the history, including how they uncovered the Medieval floor tiles.

This is a parish church with much charm. Look up to the wooden rafters to be greeted by angels. Mary Tutor, briefly Queen of France, is buried here.
