Great Tey Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

St. Barnabas; the parish church of Great Tey This is a view from the northwest. The nave was demolished in 1829 and now the church just has a stump of a nave as it is shown in the picture, being the section to the right of the tower nearest the pathway. The church is very impressive and must have been even more so before the nave was pulled down.

Facilities were good, room was clean - a little disappointment with the bed, as it was just two single beds pushed together. Everything else was fine.
