The third of the pubs along Great Wakering High Street, the Red Lion is my personal favourite. Good food!

Taken standing in St Nicholas' churchyard on Great Wakering Common. You can clearly see many of the interesting and ancient graves in the foreground, plus the old cottages of New Road behind the churchyard. This area was once a bakery. The following is a picture I recently found of this area depicting old baker's shop on the junction of New Road and Shoebury Road. http://www.peter-owen.myby.co.uk/postcards/greatwakering/gtwk05.jpg

This stunning Norman church was erected around 1100 and has been the centre of village life for almost a thousand years. See also my other photos of this church. [[299357]] [[299342]]

Dist:0.2km<br/>The fourth and final of the pubs along Wakering high street, the historic Anchor Hotel is arguably the most famous. In a pretty situation in the shadow of the old church, you can find the Anchor opposite the Co-op and chip shop.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The Old Great Wakering Fire Station was built by the Rochford Rural District Fire Brigade 1939/1940 and is the same design as Hockley Fire Station. The Wakering station closed between 1955-1965 but like Hockley still keeps the fire station look.

Dist:0.4km<br/>A lovely area opposite St Nicholas church, Great Wakering Common. Taken on a beautifully sunny December morning, 2006, from the churchyard. Note 'RIP' in foreground which wasn't intentional.
