St. Margaret's Church, Lowestoft, Medieval parish church in Lowestoft, England
The stone church features a prominent blue illuminated spire that stands high above the town, serving as a navigation point for maritime vessels.
Founded by the Priory of St Bartholomew in London after receiving the manor of Lowestoft from Henry I in 1230, the church preserves its 14th-century tower.
The interior displays a wooden panel listing parish priests since 1308 and contains memorials dedicated to fishermen who perished at sea between 1896 and 1923.
Located at Hollingsworth Road, the church holds Sunday services at 10am and 6pm, plus a Community Friendship Cafe every Monday from 2pm to 4pm.
The church maintains one of the few surviving pre-Reformation brass lecterns from 1500 and features glasswork by Regency artist Robert Allen from 1819.
