St John the Evangelist - Ford end

Looking through flickr for pictures of Essex churches a few weeks ago I came upon this beauty, the only problem was it just said near Chelmsford as a location, and try as I may (looking up various village churches around that area) I could not find out where it was and then Historian31 came to the rescue and in no time at all found it was St John the Evangelist church at Ford end.
The Church of England website has this to say about it " This lovely church (built in 1870 on an osier bed) was designed by Frederic Chancellor, with a super-confident catslide roof over the south aisle. The simple interior has wonderfully precise brickwork, a lovely arcade to the south aisle and windows of cathedral glass. It has a fine acoustic for the spoken word. The unstable ground led to the demolition of the east end, and for many years the tower was believed unsafe for bell-ringing, but now our fine peal of 6 bells (the lightest of its type in Essex) rings out joyfully again. Statues of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John guard the corners of the tower." 
For me it is just beautiful, especially the stunning red brick tower.
And... for those of you who love my macro I have added a shot of a very beautiful Yellow- tailed moth Euproctis similis, in defensive mode in my extras.
