----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve" <steveshistory2@yahoo.co.uk > > are you aware of http://www.churches-uk-ireland.org ? I've seen the site, Steve. Some of the old photos are interesting, but I'm not impressed with the quality of the recent church photographs on the site, no fault of the site owner, I realise that clarity of photographic detail is a problem for most websites. Well done for your website, your pics are reasonably clear, though, because I'm an Essex church obsessive, I would like these to be larger and to show much more detail. For me there's no substitute for visiting the churches themselves, even the best photographs are always just a pale imitation. I have a largish collection of old photographs of Essex and keep a detailed photographic record of the many Essex churches and graveyards I visit, yet I'm even never satisfied with the quality of my own pictures, let alone those on websites - with the exception of one outstanding Essex website which has sadly closed down. > I think I have covered most of the Maldon and Heybridge ones, but I was > not aware of a Heybridge Baptist Chapel. Where is that one? There were two chapels at Heybridge Basin, plus I think there's still a chapel at Heybridge. The one I photographed yesterday is St George's, Heybridge Basin, odd little chapel in a converted nissan hut, I like it. > > There is also an extra + on the OS map near the junction of the High > Street and Wantz road that I have not yet identified. Any ideas? That would be the Maldon Methodist church - there are also a Sally Army and an Elim church on Wantz Road. Colleen
