HOLY CROSS & ST LAWRENCE 2
WALTHAM ABBEY

The original church was built here in the reign of King Canute.  It was greatly extended by Harold to house the Holy Rood and after his death at the battle of Hastings he was buried here.  By 1184 Waltham was one of the largest and richest abbeys in England.   Henry V111 destroyed all but the Nave and the church was not restored until 1859.
