St Mary the Virgin Church in Burnham-on-Crouch is an 11th century building with many challenges reflecting a building of its age. The church and its green are highly valued by the community at large and host regular community events including car boot sales; the Great Burnham Bonfire; Churches Together barbecues; and concerts. In addition to its links with the church school through regular assemblies and services in the church for key festivals, the church also holds a quarterly Messy Church.

We are committed to ensuring that St Mary’s is a safe place for all and the Parochial Church Council of St Mary’s has adopted the House of Bishops ‘ Promoting a Safer Church Safeguarding Policy Statement.
