St Mary Magdalene's Church

church building United Kingdom
East Ham: Church of St Mary Magdalene, near to Beckton, Newham, Great Britain. There has reputedly been a church on this site since before the Norman Conquest of 1066 although the present church is thought to date from no earlier than the first half of the 12th century. The tower probably dates from the early 13th century, but has been much restored. The church suffered from bomb damage in 1941, including the loss of all of its stained glass windows. The churchyard covers an area of about 9.5 acres but has recently been closed for burials. Since 1977 most of the churchyard has been left as a nature reserve, managed by the London Borough of Newham as East Ham Nature Reserve, although this area around the church is maintained for worshippers and weddings. The flag of St George is fluttering from the flagstaff on the tower.
