Reviews of St. Mary's Church in Southend-on-Sea
St. Mary's Church venue information
Over the centuries, the church at Prittlewell has seen joyous times, and has fallen on hard times. Shortly after Henry VIII’s reign, at the time of the Reformation, so much of the church’s income and assets were seized that the churchwardens sold the church plate to ‘pay for maintenance of the church’. In the Second World War, Saint Mary’s suffered blast damage from bombs falling nearby, but daily services continued at the normal times throughout those difficult years. It is said that the Vicar at that time – Canon Ellis Gowing – had the valuable 16th century stained glass window removed from the Jesus Chapel and buried in the cellar of the old vicarage.
