A large, very beautiful, modern church with a wealth of stained glass and pews ranged around three sides of the altar. I felt very welcomed and accepted the blessing as an Anglican Catholic whose church was shut during the pandemic in early January. The demographic was inspiring with its range of ethnicity and ages, from preschool to pensioner. The congregation approached fity communicants during the pandemic on a bitterly cold Sunday. Quod erat demonstrandum. Even when my own church of St Mary Magdalene reopens, I shall continue to visit and adore.

We completed an 11 mile walk, in the Autumn sunshine on the remote Dengie Peninsula. This is a wild and beautiful area. Salt marsh, seascapes, prolific bird life and the isolated Chapel of St Peter’s. Our walk, following part of the 45 mile St Peter’s Way, started from the small village of Tillingham. We eventually reached the sea wall that encompasses the Peninsula. What a delight! We were on our own other than the geese and dozens of Lapwings, positioned like soldiers, out on the reclaimed fields, facing the Autumn sun. Far out into the distance we could see an isolated building looking out over the the North Sea. This was no ordinary building. It was the Grade 1 - 1,366 year old Chapel of St Peter-on-the-Wall. The Chapel was built on the site of a Roman settlement. This is an amazing site. You have to pinch yourself that you are only 55 miles from the centre of London. Our short Autumn day passed quickly - we walked back across the fields to Tillingham in the fading light.

The Parish Church of St James, Clacton-on-Sea. A beautiful church designed by the renowned architect Temple Moore. The church hosts a number of normal activities as well as local cultural events from time to time. As a place of worship it is open regularly and visitors are always welcome to come a look around quietly during those services or whenever the building is open. We welcome groups visitors and ask that you get in touch.
