The church dates from the 12th century, but was largely demolished in 1863 and rebuilt in 1864. It originally consisted of the nave and chancel, and a south aisle was added followed by a small private Chapel on the north side. The north transept is 15th C. and the roof of the north transept and nave are also 15th century. There is also a fine choir screen from the same period. The north transept was built around 1400, and originally had stained-glass windows with ancient coats of arms including those of the donors the Bataille family. This area was later used by Lords of Battles Manor as their private Chapel. The Chapel contains a Memorial to Sir William Waad of Battles Hall, who was a notable diplomat and officer of state. He was Lieutenant of the Tower of London for eight years where some of his prisoners included Guy Fawkes and Sir Walter Raleigh. The chancel was rebuilt in 1746 by Henry Woodyer. The tower was demolished in 1863 as it was unsafe. The present tower contains six bells.

Vacation Home in Hainault

"Overall clean, new or renovated apartment, comfortable bed/pillows, nicely decorated room, nice bathroom. A cool bathroom mirror. No screens on the windows so we couldn't keep it open and enjoy the cool breeze from the attic because bugs were coming in. Hard to figure out wifi password. The main challenge we faced was we didn't get the check-in details in time. I had to message the host 3 times before they gave any check-in info, which by the way was to *call* their local number... Not like the...

"The property has a lot of potential, but it's not quite there yet. The upstairs was nice, clean. The downstairs needs some attention. Pots & pans need replacing, need matches for the cooker, cleaning products, tea towels. Broken chair back in living room, uncomfortable sofa, could also do with some cushions. Also not happy that the check in details are provided at noon on the day of arrival, even though payment is taken in advance. Having said all that, if the issues were addressed I would stay...

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Great to stay at if using the airport. Has all.you need. "

Ramada by Wyndham London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Great little stopover before an early flight at Stansted. Despite being in the services area, the noise level was negligible. You can eat at the restaurants within the service area, or do what we did and take advantage of the excellent food available at the hotels own restaurant, cooked fresh to order. Great friendly staff. We will return!"
