Cornish Hall End, Essex

St John the Evangelist is a brick built 19th century (1841) church situated in the centre of this small hamlet about 2.5 miles north of Finchingfield.

Mee missed it but the totally reliable Wikipedia entry states:

Cornish Hall End is on the B1057 three miles north of Finchingfield and 4 miles (6 km) south of Steeple Bumpstead in the Braintree district of Essex. The main part of the village is a ribbon development of about 60 houses on either side of the road with many outlying farms, hamlets and individual houses.

It is approximately 11 miles (18 km) from Braintree, Great Dunmow and Saffron Walden, and about 7 miles (11 km) from Haverhill in Suffolk.

Cornish Hall End is served by a Parish Council which also represents Finchingfield, Shalford & Wethersfield.

As far as I can tell it is always locked.

ST JOHN THE EVANGELIST. 1840 by J. D. Morgan (GR). Red brick with white brick dressings. In the lancet style with a W porch and W angle turrets. A bell-tower added in 1910.
