Broomfield Church

The church of St.Mary with St.Leonard is one of the few Essex Round Tower churches. The Norman tower houses as recently restored fresco of "Christ calming the storm" by Rosemary Rutherford - a noted East Anglian artist, war artist and stained glass artist. Rosemary's father was Vicar of Broomfield during the Second World War and it was during this period, when home on leave, that she painted the fesco using traditional methods.
