berners roding church, essex

since redundancy this church is not marked as such on many maps; google is little help here, and it's off a b-road, down a dead end farm track to the hall, then up an overgrown footpath to the graveyard, well hidden by trees until the last moment. even then, the lack of tower or belfry now makes it far from obvious, and it seems that for the church authorities it is a question of out of sight, out of mind. about time something was done before the building falls down. nave ?c14 rebuilt c19, chancel given good new windows in the c16. the porch looks c19, and the belfry has been demolished.
