OUR CHURCH
We are a village church, dedicated to St Mary the Virgin, in the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. Our worship reflects the broad mainstream tradition of the Church of England.

PARKING is available in the field behind the war memorial (on the opposite side of the road from the church).

OUR HISTORY 

St Mary’s Church, Great Bealings is a beautiful place, with many treasures, lovingly accumulated over the years.
The Seckford Memorial and the tudor-brick Seckford porch are reminders of the strong link with the Seckford family in the
16th century.
There are medieval pews, with carved wooden pew ends, and later pew end carvings created by Ipswich wood carver Henry Ringham in the 19th century as part of the major refurbishment instigated by Canon Edward Moor’s family.
The stained-glass windows, carved main doors and Jacobean pulpit - with testa - are similarly to be admired.
For more on the history of this beautiful church, please go to the Suffolk Churches website.  A detailed and fully illustrated
guidebook is also available to buy.

A re-fresh has taken place!

Restoration of our notice board - picture below left (with Rob Stiles, Rob Collin, and Howard Stiles).

It looks so much better, and we have thanked Howard and Rob for preserving the legacy of their mother and father - the plaque now mentions both of them, whereas it was previously in memory of just their father.

The notice board now looks as if it belongs in the same place as the renewed (in 2024) 'Keer' gate, and the lovely new side gate. All looking cared for.
