About All Saints’ . . .


THE CHURCH

All Saints Church is a small country church consisting of a porch, nave with seating for approximately 100 in fixed pews, chancel, sanctuary and vestry. The nave contains the font which is just inside the door, the chancel contains the pulpit, organ, Rector’s stall and choir stalls. The church was reconstructed in the 1870s to a traditional design by architect Fred. Chancellor and from materials reclaimed from the earlier church building. There has been a church on this site since the C.13th. The church sits in the middle of an open churchyard which is surrounded by hedgerows, and rabbits and golf-balls can frequently be found!

THE LOCATION

All Saints Church is the Parish Church of the Parish of Creeksea. Creeksea is a very rural Parish which is located on the north bank of the River Crouch immediately to the west of the town of Burnham-on-Crouch in Essex. Very few houses remain within the Parish boundaries and the congregation is drawn principally from people living in Burnham. The Church building is relatively remote and is approached via a private drive off Ferry Road which is a turning on the south side of the Althorne to Burnham road on the outskirts of Burnham. The private drive belongs to Creeksea Hall. This leads into a parking area which abuts Burnham-on-Crouch Golf Club. The churchyard is bounded on two sides by the golf club and on the other two sides by the grounds of Creeksea Hall.
