The only one I can see in Bridge is Saint Mary’s at Stoke church, which is two minutes away from me in Rectory Road.

Some nearby attractions that are open are:

• The Willis Building
• The Old Custom House
• Unitarian Meeting House
• St Mary At The Quay
• St Peter’s Church
• The Mansion, Wherstead

I definately want to see the Old Custom House.

The details of the opening times are in the following PDF leaflet:

If the Reformation had never happened this would be my parish church.  However it is still a handsome building.  I give you Saint Mary Stoke church:

In my opinion this church looks good in any season and at any time of the day:
