Haverhill St Mary?s church
Haverhill’s splendid and richly endowed church suffered a serious fire in 1665 just a year before the Great Fire of London, and very little remained except the 14th c. nave walls and tower. The three pinnacles are carved grotesque figures. At the fourth corner is the stair turret, which continues above the embattled parapet. What we see today is a typical town church rebuilt about the same time as St Paul’s Cathedral. The font is the original from before the fire. The font cover is the work of Frederick Gibberd, famed for being the designer of Liverpool’s great Catholic Cathedral. Unfortunately, the church is usually kept locked. There is little of historical or architectural interest to see here apart from the aforementioned. The interest lies in the rise of Haverhill as a town, and its trials and tribulations through the centuries, to become Suffolk’s fifth largest town today.
