The Parish Church of Hoo St Werburgh The Parish Church of Hoo St Werburgh Part of Strood Deanery In The Diocese of Rochester Our Patron – Dean and Chapter Website: www.hoochurch.org.uk Facebook: www.facebook.com/hoochurch/ A Church Near You: www.achurchnearyou.com/church/19900 “Building a welcoming, caring church family that is growing in Faith and reaching out with God’s love” A church at Hoo was known to be in existence as long ago as 1080-1086. The present building was probably started about the middle of the 12th century. St Werburgh’s Church is constructed of rubble stonework. Dressed stonework is in Kentish Ragstone and 19th century Bath stone. The lower sections of the Western Tower have some ‘Tuffa’ stonework that pre date 1100; however, the majority of the Nave and Aisles date from the 13th century with elegant arcades. In the 14th and 15th centuries the aisles and clerestory were significantly altered. The chancel dates from the 13th and 14th centuries and the Nave and Chancel in particular retain magnificent late medieval roofs. The spire is covered with Oak shingles and is 61 feet in height with a further 7 feet from its summit to the ball. The whole is surmounted by a 4-foot tall weather vane. It is set on a battlemented tower of 55 feet in height, making a total of 127 feet. During 2015 due to a problem with woodworm and crumbling floor timbers and with funding from the Heritage Lottery, grants from various charities and organisations and our own fund raising, we have been able to re-order the main part of the church. We now have underfloor heating; a tiled floor and we replaced the pews with chairs with seating for 200-240 making an area which is far more user friendly for services and community use. Our lighting is due to be renewed this August and this is being funded through a generous legacy from a previous parishioner. We also have permission to start Phase 2 which will include new toilets, a new kitchen area, meeting room and storage area for chairs and an upstairs meeting room at the back of the church. We have started grant applications for this and will also be concentrating on fundraising for this project over the next year or so. However, we recognise that though the money is vital to realise our vision, so is the need not to become too focused on money, and our in-house fundraising will incorporate social events which further build relationships within our church family and wider community St Werburgh St Werburgh was a devout Saxon Princess – a member of the Mercian Royal Household Born sometime during 640/650 AD and died on the 3rd February 698 or 699 (Her Saint Day) Her Father was: King Wulfhere (First Christian King of Mercia) Her Mother was: Queen Eormengild Sexburga (Werburg’s Grandmother) founded a nunnery at Minster on the Isle of Sheppy Werburgh was related to four Great Kingdoms – Kent, Mercia, The Franks and The East Angles Hoo St Werburgh Hoo St. Werburgh is a village situated by the River Medway in North Kent, within the Diocese of Rochester, on the Hoo Peninsula. The village is surrounded by the River Medway to the south and farmland on the other three. The population is approx.11 000 – 12 000 and still growing. The housing is made up of social housing, owner occupied and rented accommodation. A building project to erect another 1 000 homes has already started and is due to be completed. There are plans for further building within the Medway Towns Structure Plan. We have a sheltered housing complex for the elderly within one of the new estates, a residential care home and private retirement apartments. Next to the river are two communities – Hoo Marina Park, comprising of approximately 300 park homes of various sizes and Port Werburgh which is a community of house boats and deluxe park homes.

  • Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017
    Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017 Executive Summary The Medway Heritage Asset Review intends to provide a comprehensive overview of the heritage assets in Medway in order to inform the development of a Heritage Strategy to support the emerging Medway Local Plan 2015. Medway benefits from a rich heritage spanning millennia, underpinning the local distinctiveness and creating a unique and special character that can be readily interpreted through the historic environment. The main report is broken down into sections, initially looking at the topography of Medway and how this influenced human settlement in the area, then looking at the development of the key settlements in Medway; taking into consideration the key drivers for their establishment and identifying existing heritage assets. Furthermore, the main influences to development in the area are also considered; including Chatham Dockyard and the military, the brick, cement and lime industry, agriculture, maritime and religion. Through investigating Medway’s history both geographically and thematically, the significance of heritage assets and the importance of historic landscapes can be readily identified; enabling a better understanding and providing opportunities to enhance their enjoyment. Non-designated heritage assets are also identified using a broad range of sources; providing a deeper knowledge of what shapes the distinct local character experienced in Medway and the how this identity is of great importance to the local community. The report concludes with suggestions for additional areas of research and identifies themes to be considered to inform the development of a coherent and robust Heritage Strategy that will help enhance, understand and celebrate Medway’s heritage for years to come.
