St Mary, Aythorpe Roding, Essex

 

A new entry on the Essex Churches site.

 

It was May 2014, the most beautiful spring of the century. I had taken my bike on the train from Ipswich to Bishops Stortford before heading off away from the hell of Stansted airport into the wilds of Essex. Now I veered eastwards from the forest, entering the emptiest and most remote area of the county. No villages for miles, just hamlets, fields and the occasional farmstead. The road to my next target would have meant a five mile ride, but I spotted a half-mile bridleway, of which there are lots in this part of Essex. It would cut three miles off the journey, so I took it. It was a farm track, deeply rutted, and it took me down the side of a barley field to copses in the distance, the hysterical yellow of acres of rapeseed in full flower beyond.

 

At first, it was just about cycleable, but then it wasn't, so I pushed my bike for about ten minutes or so. As I approached the country lane at the far end of it I thought there seemed something vaguely familiar about it, and then I realised what it was. Ah, I thought to myself, I'm entering East Anglia again. Now I was on hedged lanes through rolling fields of barley and rapeseed. Profound green, intense yellow. The road climbed, and over the rise I saw a spire. I headed down a track for half a mile or so and came to one of the most remote churches in all Essex.

 

It was locked, there was no keyholder notice. An inexpressibly lonely place. The church itself is a poor little thing, its wooden spire shot through with woodpecker holes. There were no notices of service in the porch, and so I expect it has fallen into disuse. Redundancy beckons, and perhaps it will be left to go quietly back to nature. It might just as well be left open, in which case it would at least serve some purpose to passing walkers, pilgrims and strangers.

 

And yet there was something very special about just standing in the churchyard, in the silence. It felt like nothing had happened here for a very long time. I looked down at the inscription on a memorial cross to Our Dear Son, Bertie George Emberson, who died at the Military Hospital, Caterham, Surrey, September 7th 1918 aged 19 years. How awful. And yet, I thought, the churchyard they stood in to watch him put into the earth has not changed. The one they knew is the one there now.

 

Simon Knott, April 2018

The owners of Langham House (formerly Rode or Road Hill House) kindly opened their lovely gardens to the public on Sunday, the first time this has ever happened I believe. Because of its infamy in 1860, and the numerous books written about the murder of a child from the house, the place was overwhelmed with visitors, eager to test their own theories as well as have a nose around a glorious garden. Nice day.

Hawthorn berries over the Roding. Late afternoon sun.

Nog steeds aanwezig in het Hofpark in Wateringen.

Totaal niet schuw en lijkt zich goed te kunnen handhaven.

Ik heb hem een paar keer op grote afstand boven de weilanden nabij Bleskensgraaf langs zien vliegen. Hij staat er herkenbaar op maar errug mooi is anders, volgende keer met een zonnetje nog maar eens proberen.

I was excited to receive my Rode PSA 1 Studio Arm today which I ordered from B&H Photo. It doesn't seem to work! According to all the videos I've seen of the PSA 1 in action, the arm is supposed to stay where you position it. Mine seems to want to stay fully extended all the time. Is there some button or lever I'm not seeing? The instructions are ... less then helpful.

Das Kalksandsteinwerk am Rodinger Bahnhof produzierte schon vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Im Jahr 2000 wurde der Betrieb endgültig eingestellt.

I've lived nearly all my life in this area but only found out about this place a few weeks ago.

I walked from Wanstead down to the Redbridge roundabout and then along this part of the Roding to Woodford Bridge.

More to follow.
