Bike ride and afternoon tea?

The following Essex country churches are known to serve tea and cakes on summer Sunday afternoons:

  • Blackmore, St Laurence. 2-4.30pm (first Sunday of month). Very popular with cyclists.
  • High Beech, Holy Innocents. 2-4pm (2-5pm if this site is correct). Allegedly 20 types of cake. (I feel certain there should be a disclaimer here somewhere!)
  • Stanford Rivers, St Margaret. 2 - 4.30 some say, but the church's website says 2.30-4.30. Tea also available by arrangement.
Anyone planning to lead a bike ride might like to cut their teeth with an afternoon trip to one of these.

Teas In The Tower at Blackmore is on the first Sunday in the month, May to October, from 2.30 to 4.30pm.

All Saints Doddinghurst also do teas in the summer - check their website for details.
