Parish Church of St Edward the Confessor, Anglican parish church in Romford, England
The Parish Church of St Edward the Confessor is a Gothic church made of Ragstone with decorative Bath stone details. The interior contains a central nave with side aisles and a west gallery.
An earlier church stood on this site and was consecrated in 1410 before being demolished. The current building was completed in 1850.
The stained glass windows depict religious scenes created by respected Victorian artists, filling the interior with colored light. These artworks tell stories from Christian tradition and draw visitors' attention throughout the building.
The church holds regular services and is actively used by the community. Check opening times in advance if you plan to visit inside the building.
Stone used for the building came from the demolition of John Nash's famous Quadrant on Regent Street in London. This gives the structure an unusual link to another well-known London landmark.
