St Mary the Virgin Frinton

I was having lunch with my friends Jan and Tony in Frinton and as I was a little early I popped into the small  church.

Until the Victorians arrived Frinton was a church, several farms and a handful of cottages. 

The nave is probably 14th century and is only 25 feet long! The small chancel was added by the Victorians (there was a medieval one that blew down in 1703). Including four panels of Morris glass designed by Burne-Jones c1862 in the East Window..

The Victorians built a bigger church but it is St Mary's that has the charm! 

Frinton is a conservative place it has only recent acquired a pub! 





That East window.
