Writtle is a large parish and village 2 m. W. of Chelmsford. The Church, Moor Hall and Aubyns are the principal monuments.

Ecclesiastical

^c(1). Parish Church of All Saints stands in the village. The walls are mostly of ragstone-rubble with some flint and ironstone; the chancel contains some Roman bricks, and the S. chapel of the nave is of 16th-century brick. The dressings are of limestone, clunch, Barnack, and a hard stone resembling purbeck; the roof of the chancel is tiled; those of the rest of the structure are covered with lead. The Nave, with its arcades and with N. and S. aisles, was built c. 1230; the Chancel is probably of the same date, as the E. quoins are apparently of the 13th century. In the first half of the 14th century the North and South Aisles were re-built, and during the same century the North and South Chapels were probably added to the chancel and the North Vestry built. In the 15th century the N. and S. chancel-arcades were altered, and perhaps reconstructed, together with the N. chapel and vestry, and the clearstorey of the nave was re-built. The North and South Porches were added c. 1400. Early in the 16th century North and South Chapels were added to the nave-aisles. The West Tower fell in 1802 and was re-built and the nave arcades partly re-built during the century, the westernmost bays being reduced in span. The chancel and chapel-arches are modern.

The chapels, probably 'chantry chapels,' N. and S. of the nave are of interest; among the fittings the monument by Nicholas Stone and the late 15th-century seating are noteworthy, and there is a long series of brasses.

Architectural Description—The Chancel (41 ft. by 18½ ft. at the E. end and 21 ft. at the W. end) has chamfered quoins at the S.E. angle. In the E. wall is a modern window. In the N. wall is an arcade of two bays, probably originally of the 14th century, but altered in the 15th century; the two-centred arches are of two hollow-chamfered orders; the circular column, probably of the 14th century, has a moulded capital and base of the 15th century, and the E. respond is semi-octagonal with moulded capital and base; the W. respond is modern. Further E. is a 14th-century doorway (Plate p. 273) to the vestry with two-centred arch and stop-moulded jambs. In the S. wall is an arcade of two bays, generally similar to that on the N.; further E. is a 15th-century window, now blocked, of three cinque-foiled lights under a four-centred head; the jambs and head are moulded and the label has been cut back. The chancel-arch is modern.

The North Vestry (15 ft. by 12½ ft.) is of the 14th century, and of two storeys with an embattled parapet continued from the N. chapel and arch. The ground storey has in the E. wall a 15th-century window of three cinque-foiled lights in a four-centred head with a moulded label. In the N. wall is a modern doorway. The upper storey has in the E. wall an early 16th-century window of two four-centred lights with sunk spandrels.

The North Chapel (24 ft. by 13 ft.) is of the 14th century, and has set in the E. wall, about 8 ft. above the floor, a length of about 5 ft. of 15th-century moulded oak plate. In the N. wall are two windows all modern except the 15th-century splays and segmental-pointed rear-arches. In the W. wall is a modern arch opening into the N. aisle.

The South Chapel (25½ ft. by 11½ ft.) is of the 14th century, and has an embattled parapet and hollow-chamfered plinth, both restored. In the E. wall is a window all modern except the 14th-century stopped hollow-chamfered splays and rear-arch. In the S. wall is a window all modern except the splays of c. 1330; they have attached shafts with much-worn moulded capitals and bases; the hollow-chamfered four-centred rear-arch is probably of the 15th century; below the window externally are the chamfered jambs and part of the two-centred arch of a low doorway; the window-sill may have been lowered, cutting off the top of the head, and the restored plinth is carried across; the doorway is probably of the 14th century, but its use is uncertain. Further E. is a modern doorway cutting into the lower part of an early 16th-century window with moulded jambs and four-centred head, now blocked. In the W. wall is a modern arch opening into the S. aisle.

Tho Nave (70 ft. by 23 ft.) has N. and S. arcades of five bays with early 13th-century two-centred arches of two chamfered orders, with a moulded label on the inner face of the N. arcade and a chamfered label on the corresponding face of the S. side; the second, third and fourth arches, and E. part of the westernmost arch of the N. arcade, and the fourth arch and like part of the westernmost arch of the S. arcade, are original; the others have been re-built, the easternmost arches on both sides being widened probably when the chancel-arch was re-built, and the westernmost arches on both sides made narrower and cemented when the tower was re-built. In the N. arcade the first, second and fourth columns, part of the third column, and the E. respond are modern; in the S. arcade the second, third and fourth columns and the E. respond are modern, both W. responds have been re-set. The clearstorey has on each side three windows all modern except the splays and hollow-chamfered segmental-pointed rear-arches, which are of the 15th century; above the first column on the S. side is an almost round-headed opening, now blocked, and with remains of a label; it may be an original clearstorey window, subsequently enlarged.

The North Aisle (10½ft. wide) is of the 14th century, and has in the N. wall an early 16th-century archway with a moulded and stopped W. respond and a moulded four-centred arch partly dying on to the wall on the E. and partly corbelled out from it; the W. respond has an attached shaft with a moulded capital. Further W. are three windows; the easternmost is of three cinque-foiled lights under a four-centred head with a moulded label, all of late 15th or early 16th-century date, set in 14th-century splays.and rear-arch; the second window is of c. 1340 and of three trefoiled ogee lights with net tracery under a two-centred head with a moulded label and head-stops; the westernmost window is modern. Between the two western windows is the N. doorway with moulded and chamfered jambs of the 13th century, re-set, and two-centred arch of the 14th century with a moulded label.

The North Nave Chapel (13 ft. by 21 ft.) is formed by connecting two buttresses by an early 16th-century wall, which contains a window all modern except the splays and four-centred rear-arch.

The South Aisle (10½ ft. wide) is of the 14th century, and has in the first bay in the S. wall an early 16th-century archway with stop-moulded responds and four-centred arch. Above the arch is an early 16th-century window of three cinque-foiled lights, much damaged, under a square head with an internal lintel of oak. Further W. are three more windows; the first is all modern, except the splays, which are of c. 1330, and have attached shafts with moulded capitals and bases and a hollow-chamfered, segmental-pointed rear-arch; the second window is all modern except the splays and chamfered two-centred rear-arch, which are plastered, but probably of the 14th century; the westernmost window is modern. E. of the archway is the turret-staircase to the rood-loft, enclosed externally in a buttressed, quadrant-shaped projection and having a tabled top. The newel stair is complete and has at the bottom a blocked looplight and a doorway with a four-centred head and a modern oak frame; at the top is a doorway partly covered by the modern arch to the S. chapel; it has chamfered jambs and two-centred arch, probably of late 14th or early 15th-century date. Between the two western windows is the S. doorway with jambs and two-centred arch of two orders, the inner with rounded edge, the outer chamfered and with a slightly restored label, all of the 13th century, re-set.

The South Nave Chapel (12 ft. by 8 ft.) is of early 16th-century date and of red brick, with stone dressings and an embattled parapet. In the E. wall, externally, is a blocked modern opening, and above it a stone panel with a raised black letter inscription, all weathered away except the last words, " . . . . (chap ?) Ian of thys chyrche." In the S. wall is a window all modern except the early 16th-century splays and four-centred rear-arch. In the W. wall is an early 16th-century window, now blocked, with moulded jambs and segmental-pointed head with a moulded label.

The North Porch has old walls, but the outer archway and the windows are entirely modern.

The South Porch has an outer archway of c. 1400, with moulded two-centred arch and moulded jambs; each with three attached shafts with moulded capitals; parts of the jambs are modern. In both the E. and W. walls is a window all modern except the splays and segmental rear-arch.

The Roof of the chancel has a boarded ceiling, all modern except for eighteen bosses of the 15th century, carved with foliated angles, blank shields, a mermaid, a seated grotesque figure, etc. The 15th-century ceiling of the vestry has plain chamfered beams and flat joists with a square hatchway to the upper storey. A main beam has mortices for former curved braces. The 15th-century low-pitched roof of the N. chapel has moulded principals and ridge-piece and plain rafters; the main intersections have foliated bosses, two with blank shields and one with a blank circle; against the N. wall are moulded corbels, probably of the 17th century. The 15th-century flat lean-to roof of the S. chapel is of two bays with moulded principal and central purlin; against the S. wall are three wooden corbels, one dated 1774, another dated 1710 and carved with a sunflower and foliage. The roof of the nave is partly of the 15th century, repaired at various dates; it is flat-pitched and of six bays with chamfered tie-beams, having curved braces and painted foliage bosses. The plates are of 16th or early 17th-century date, and, in the three eastern bays and the W. bay, they are dentilled; in the other bays they have strap and boss-ornament: The E. tie-beam is dated 1740, the W. tie-beam is dated 1802; the fifth tie-beam is partly dentilled; the tie-beams rest on stone corbels on which are fixed wooden angels holding organs, a shield with a cheveron, a lute, etc., one modern. The 15th-century roof of the N. aisle has stop-chamfered principals and chamfered purlin, with three 17th-century moulded corbels of wood against the N. wall carved with a heart, a shield and rose with date 1640, etc. The roof of the N. nave chapel has plain old timbers, one re-used. The 15th-century roof of the S. aisle is similar to that of the N. aisle but the original principals are stop-moulded and the purlin is double hollow-chamfered. The roof of the S. nave chapel has a flat plaster ceiling with a moulded cornice with running foliage, possibly of early 16th-century date, but painted, and perhaps modern. The W. tower has old timbers re-used in the first floor. The N. porch has a plain trussed-rafter roof, probably of c. 1400 and with modern plates. The roof of the S. porch is also of c. 1400 and has moulded wall-plates and central purlin with struts and wall-posts at the N. and S. ends, and trussed-rafters.
