| St Michael, Woodham Walter |
St Michael's Church, Woodham Walter celebrated its 450th anniversary last weekend with a Flower Festival. The church, built in 1653, is thought to have been the first 'Church of England' denomination building constructed in Britain. On hand last Saturday was Queen Elizabeth I to welcome pilgrims. The Flower Festival's theme was 'A Journey Through Time', telling the story of the village through key people and events. One display remembered a local hero who died last year but had served in the RAF during the Second World War. Another display highlighted 'The Bell' inn built in about the same year as the church. The pub made an excellent stopping point for lunch.
