History

There was originally a wooden church on this site.[2] It was replaced in 1150 by a stone church, and parts of this survive till today within the current building.[1][2] The belfry was added in the 15th century.[1][3]

The church was restored in 1857, and Victorian stained glass windows were added.[1][3] The church was extended in 1906 by Sir Ninian Comper.[3] A chancel was added by Frederick Charles Eden between 1931 and 1932.[1]

On 23 November 1971, the church was designated a grade II* listed building. This grade designates "particularly important buildings of more than special interest" and is the second highest.[1]

Present day

The parish of Southchurch is part of the Archdeaconry of Southend in the Diocese of Chelmsford.[4]
