WEST BERGHOLT ST. MARY THE VIRGIN (NEW CHURCH) CHURCHYARD:-
This Anglican church was/is referred to, by locals, as the ‘New Church' – it is so-called because the village has an ‘old' church called St. Mary's – now redundant. Much of this old church is 14th century, although it is believed to have Saxon origins. As is often the case with these ancient churches, the old St. Mary's stands beside an historic hall or manor - both standing at some distance from the main body of the village they represent.
It was deemed necessary to build a new church because the condition of the old church had deteriorated. This new church was built 1903/4 and the architect company was Sir Arthur Blomfield & Sons. This church stands in the heart of the village, on the corner of New Church Road and Church Close and was dedicated on 12th August 1904.
