St Matthew’s Leavenheath (with Honey Tye)

Dedicated to St Matthew, this warm friendly well cared for small Victorian church lying in a tree lined hollow, signed off the A134 at the northern end of the village. It contains an unusual set of white grave crosses dating from the First World War and associated photographs. Originally a Victorian Chapel of Ease for St Mary’s, Stoke by Nayland, St. Matthew’s, Leavenheath is now a Parish in its own right. Parking for disabled access is down church drive, otherwise on grass verge alongside main road.

The Parish actively supports its Community Pantry & Hardship Fund for those in need.

St Matthew’s is part of the Benefice of Stoke-by-Nayland with Leavenheath and Polstead, and Nayland with Wissington; part of the Hadleigh Deanery.
