All Saints Church, Loughton

All Saints Church, Loughton

. The church seats approximately 100 people.

The present building dates from 1480, but there were originally two buildings in two separate parishes - Little and Greater Loughton. In 1378, the curate/parson, William Capel de Sapcote of Little Loughton was found dead on the highway. An inquest found that the priest of Great Loughton, John Gervyes, had killed him with an arrow worth 1d. The value of the bow and arrow was 14d, and 'Great Loughton' was fined by that amount. In 1408, Little and Great Loughton were merged to form the present parish.

The church now forms part of the Watling Valley Ecumenical Partnership.
