Welcome to The Parish of Grays North and Stifford
We are one parish that includes the communities of North Stifford and Stifford Clays both following the message and life of Jesus Christ.
One Parish three Churches

- St Cedd's Church, Crammavill Street, Stifford Clays, Essex, RM16 2AP
- St John’s Church, Victoria Avenue, Grays, Essex, RM16 2RP
The history of St Mary’s goes back to Norman times, whereas St Cedd’s only celebrated its 65th anniversary in 2020. We combine within our Parish the old and the new, the traditional and the modern.
