Creeksea

Excursions in the County of Essex by Thomas Kitson Cromwell 1818

Cricksea is also situated on the river Crouch, and here is a ferry into Rochford hundred.

Cricksea Hall is near the east end of the church, and Cricksea Place about three quarters of a mile to the south-east of it. " This was formerly of great note; here was a pleasant park well stored with timber; it had an outer court, or grand entrance, part of which, with the ponds, walls, &c. remain."

The church has neither steeple nor bell.

To the north of this place, and in a line with it, are Althorn and Mayland.
