Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Leyton, Anglican church building in Leyton, England.
The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin features a brick tower with corner buttresses, a domed clock turret, and cuspless geometrical tracery windows.
The oldest surviving sections of the church date back to 1658, with major rebuilding works completed in 1822 funded by a donor known as The Old Parishioner.
The church contains monuments from the 17th and 18th centuries, including pieces by John Flaxman and memorials dedicated to the Hicks family beneath the tower.
The church maintains regular services under the Church of England Diocese of Chelmsford and provides guided tours for visitors interested in its architecture.
The building survived both bomb damage in 1951 and a fire in 1995, leading to restorations that included the creation of a chapel under the tower.
