This picture shows Clacton Seventh-Day Adventist Community Church, on Rush Green Road and opposite the end of Boxted Avenue. The church building was constructed in 1893 (the date is in the roundel above the door to right of picture). On an 1896 map of the Clacton area, the church is shown as a Wesleyan Mission Chapel, with what was then the hamlet of Coppins Green just to the north. The chapel stood by the road leading south to the hamlet of Rush Green, farmland otherwise surrounding the building. The expanding seaside resort of Clacton-on-Sea has since engulfed the farmland and small settlements.
