Fryerning

Fryerning is a village in the civil parish of Ingatestone and Fryerning, in the Borough of Brentwood in Essex, England. It is situated approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Ingatestone. The parish church of St. Mary the Virgin, on Blackmore Road, dates back from the 11th century, with a 15th-century brick tower. It has a memorial stained glass window to the murdered politician Airey Neave, which was unveiled by his cousin Penelope in 1985. An ancient English Yew, found to the west of the church and is over a millennium old, is thought to be one of Essex's oldest trees.

Fryerning was formerly a civil parish; it was merged with Ingatestone in 1889. Fryerning is located in mid-Essex and has several big areas of woodland populated by several large herds of deer, which are frequently seen by walkers and cyclists. The village has no shops, but two pubs.
