As a former student myself, I am conscious just how much the House has changed through the years to meet the changing demands of ministry and mission in the Church of England, elsewhere in the Anglican Communion and in the developing ecumenical partnerships which the Federation embodies. We have been at the forefront in the deliberations which have led to the introduction of the Common Awards.

  • History of the Parish and Church ST GILES Colchester
    History of the Parish and Church ST GILES Colchester Historical Notes on the Church & Parish of St. Giles, Colchester By George Rickword F.R. Hist. S. Note – This record of St. Giles’s Church and Parish was commissioned by Mr. Reginald B. Beard J.P., for his friend, the late Rev. E.W. Hartley Parker, M.A. former Rector of the parish, and publication is by Mr. Beard’s kind permission. This transcript is dated between 1931 and when the church closed in 1954. THE PARISH OF ST. GILES is the largest of the twelve urban parishes of Colchester. It covers 1,501 acres, the whole south side of the town, from Rowhedge and the Colne on the east to Reed Hall on the Layer Road westward, and is bounded on the north by Berechurch. It has long been the most populous parish in the borough. It may represent the property of some Saxon thane, but Domesday takes no notice of parochial divisions, being only concerned with fiscal questions. We may surmise that some thirty or forty of the burgesses, with their families, cultivated their five­acre plots in the common fields in the days of Edward the Confessor, and found sustenance for their sheep and cattle on the heath, and pannage for their pigs in the dense woods which covered both Donylands. Nor must we overlook the forefathers of our world­famous Colne navigators, the sailors, whose boats carried on what exterior trade there was when roads were hardly known.
