St Mary's Church

About

The parish church of St Mary the Virgin, Wivenhoe has been at the centre of village life for centuries and is first mentioned in 1254. At least part of the medieval church survives today, including the tower built around 1500. Following a fire in 1850, the church was extensively rebuilt by a local architect E. C. Hakewill (1816-72).
