'Waltham Abbey, we may observe, was the last of all abbeys to submit when the King [Henry VIII] determined to dissolve them.
'The present church, still so majestic, is an architectural palimpsest. The tower, built out of very old materials, was put up in 1558; the chapel comes from the fourteenth century.'
Clifford Bax, Highways and Byways in Essex, pages 156-157
