Essex
Church Photographs
Great Bentley
The following pages contain photographs
of old Parish Churches in Essex. My eventual aim is to have a
photo of every old Parish Church in the County.
If you would like to copy any of them
for your family records, please feel free to do so.
I am happy for them to be used on web
sites of a personal, genealogical or information nature, provided
that an acknowledgment is given.
If you wish to use them for commercial
purposes then permission is required..mailto:ian@iananddot.org
If you have any photographs of Essex
Parish Churches that are not already here, or if you have better
ones, I would be happy to use them, with an acknowledgment to you
of course.
There are currently 458
photographs....any churches without a link are yet to be
completed.
