St Mary the Virgin Church, Matching, Essex
The Church of St Mary was probably built on an old Saxon site. The tower was added in the 15th century; plain, square and embattled and surmounted by a low tiled spire and weather clock. It retains its original 13th century doorway. Six bells are in the tower, restored in 1990. It is inscribed "God Save the Queen". The second and third bells were originally cast about 1500 by William Culverden of Houndsditch, and inscribed "Sancte Thoma ora pro nobis" and "Sancta Anna ora pro nobis"; the fourth is inscribed "God Save the King. 1615" and the fifth "God Save the King. 1640". A sixth bell was added in 1887 to celebrate the Jubilee of Queen Victoria. The clock on the church tower was removed from the old church at Epping when the church was pulled down, and set up in St Mary the Virgin.
