Back to St Mary's Church, Ramsden Crays

Image Description

Ramsden Crays parish church is described in Pevsner as being "Now disused and ruinous." This would have been part of the revision made by Enid Radcliffe. Further investigation has shown that the church was, indeed, unfit for use in the 1960s, and the congregation used the nearby church hall for all services. In 1993, the church was again closed, this time permanently, and the church hall took over all its functions. You can find more details about Ramsden Crays (or Crays Hill) church by clicking here.


Keeping this site ad-free, with extensive photography of Essex's churches, involves real costs in hosting and travel. If you've found it useful or enjoyable, a small contribution via Buy Me a Coffee would be hugely appreciated.
