St Simon & St Jude, Quendon

This little church is just as I remember it... Quendon is the tiny village where I grew up. I have to admit though I don't remember the dedication St Simon & St Jude.

I do remember vividly the day in 1963 when the new weather cock was put up. It was brought to the little school on Rickling Green so all us kids could get a look at it.

Description 

Small flint church with stone dressings of C13 origin but altered in the C16 and much restored and rebuilt in 1861. The chancel arch and the north and south arcades of 3 bays to the nave are of the C13. The aisles were  rebuilt. The very small chancel was rebuilt in the C16 and has original windows in the north and south walls and 2 interesting niches at the angles of the east wall (interior). The south porch and bellcote are C20. Graded for its C13 and C16 architectural features.
