St Andrew's Church, Covehithe

St Andrew's Church is a partly redundant Anglican church in the hamlet of Covehithe in the English county of Suffolk. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, Part of the church is in ruins and this is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The church stands on a lane leading directly towards the sea, in an area of coast which has suffered significant ongoing erosion. The parish of Covehithe has been combined with neighbouring Benacre. History The oldest fabric in the original large medieval church dates from the 14th century, although most of it is from the 15th century. During the Civil War much of the stained glass was destroyed by the local iconoclast William Dowsing. By the later part of that century the large church was too expensive for the parishioners to maintain, and they were given permission in 1672 to remove the roof and to build a much smaller church within it. This small church is still in use, while the tower and the ruins of the old church are maintained by the Churches Conservation Trust. Present day The parish is a member of The Prayer Book Society, a traditionalist Anglican society that champions the use of the Book of Common Prayer. As the church rejects the ordination of women, it receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Richborough (currently Luke Irvine-Capel). Architecture Medieval church This is constructed in random flint rubble with stone dressings. Its plan consists of a nave, a chancel, north and south seven-bay aisles, a north sacristy, and a west tower. The tower is still intact and is in three principal stages, with buttresses and a battlemented parapet. On the south side of the middle stage is an ogee-headed opening. There are bell openings on each side of the top stage, but their tracery is missing. The wall of the south aisle is more complete than the north wall, and contains six intact window openings. The chancel projects one bay beyond the aisles, and contains tall window openings in its north and south wall, and a large east window opening. The buttresses at the east end are decorated with chequered flushwork, and contain canopied niches for statues. Some of the carved corbels for the chancel roof are still present. Newer small church The west end of the 17th-century church is built against the tower. Its fabric includes much material re-used from the older church, and some brick. Its roof is thatched. The windows have two lights separated by wooden mullions, and contain diamond-leaded windows. Both the north and the south doorways have been re-used. The east window dates from the 19th century. Inside the church is a 15th-century carved octagonal font. At the west end are 15th-century pews with poppyhead carving. The wooden pulpit contains some 17th-century carving. Under the tower arch are the royal arms of George III. See also List of churches preserved by the Churches Conservation Trust in the East of England References

Januar 1999 entgleiste ein Personenzug auf der Fahrt von Huddersfield nach Carlisle am Crosby Garrett Tunnel in unmittelbarer Nähe der Siedlung, da ein Erdrutsch die Strecke blockierte. Der entgleiste Zug ragte in das zweite Gleis hinein, auf dem ein entgegenkommender Güterzug trotz Warnung nicht rechtzeitig bremsen konnte, um einen Zusammenstoß zu verhindern. Bei dem Eisenbahnunfall wurde Zugpersonal verletzt, aber keiner der 22 Fahrgäste.

History During the Anglian ice age around 450,000 years ago, the ice sheet reached The Dell, a few metres south of the current location of the church. It has been claimed that this is the furthest south reached by any ice sheet in Britain during the Pleistocene epoch, however the Anglian icesheet is known to have extended as far south as the north coast of Cornwall and to Scilly. There has been a church on this site since at least 1163, when it was given by Henry II to the Hornchurch Priory. The tower and the north porch were added in the 15th century.

On Monday May 27, 1912 a band of ringers led by William Pye rang a peal of 15,264 changes of Bristol Surprise major in 9 hours and 49 minutes. This was at the time the longest length rung in any surprise method. Design The current church is an example of late Gothic architecture. It was designated as a Grade I listed building by Historic England in 1955. Interments St Andrew's contains a number of funereal monuments and memorials to local families and dignitaries. Among these are memorials to the daughters of William Blackborne, who lived at Hornchurch and who was related to Abraham Blackborne, the long-serving rector (58 years) of Dagenham, as well as Levett Blackborne, Lincoln's Inn barrister and grandson of Sir Richard Levett, Lord Mayor of London.

Thomas Clutterbuck, treasurer of the Navy, and one of his Majesty's (King George II) most honourable privy council," who died 1742.
