Interior of St Andrew's Church

Image: © Tiger Taken: 21 Mar 2010

The 13th-century chancel is the oldest part of the church. The arcade to the south aisle is 14th-century, but altered in the 16th when the clerestory windows were introduced; and the large clear windows in the south wall, which make this church so light inside, were renewed in 1812 when the tower was built. The present layout dates from 1924, when the old box pews were removed. Arthur Mee, who surveyed Essex in 1940, found this church "a symphony in green". St Andrew's is listed Grade II* https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101338347-parish-church-of-st-andrew-helions-bumpstead
