St Peter's on the Wall

Out on the remote Bradwell peninsula in Essex is the remaining Saxon building of St Peter's on the Wall, reputed to be the oldest existing Church in England. The remaining building dates from the mid 7th century. Built by St Cedd from the remains of a Roman fort that once stood here. It still functions as a Church, services are held regularly and it is open all day, every day. The door is never locked. This would have seemed like the edge of the world 1400 years ago. Today, when the sun sets, it still feels like standing the edge of darkness.
