Thaxted Essex England, UK. Man and his dog at Thaxted Church. March 2016 The parish church of St John, built between 1340 and 1510, is renowned for its flying buttressed spire, which is 181 feet tall and is the only medieval stone spire in the county. It has perpendicular windows and a stained glass representing Adam and Eve. The church, which stands on a hill and overlooks the town, is often referred to as "the Cathedral of Essex". From 1910 to 1942, the vicar was Conrad Noel, known as the 'Red Vicar' because of his well known Christian Socialism.
