A warm welcome awaits you at High Beach Church.

The Church of the Holy Innocents was built in 1873, designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield in Victorian Gothic style and is situated in the heart of Epping Forest. As well as holding Sunday services throughout the year, the church is open every Sunday afternoon between 2.00 and 5.00pm from the beginning of May to the end of September.  Visitors can look around and also enjoy home-made cake and light refreshments in this tranquil setting.

Visitors are encouraged to ascend the church tower to learn how to ring the carillon or to sit inside the church and listen to the Father Willis organ being played. On the altar cloth in the side chapel you can see the cattle brand marks for the local area depicted on the altar cloth.  The carpet leading up to the altar shows the two variant spellings of High Beach/Beech.
