There is a splendid limestone figure of Alice, wife of Sir John Tyrell, flanked by her children, all named.

Up the stairs is the south gallery, which was a living room for the chantry priest in pre-Reformation times, with a Tudor fireplace.

To the south of the church, East Horndon is reduced to the original old road to Herongate, winding up the hill, two restaurants and two houses.

East Horndon once had its own petrol station with a nightclub known as "Elliott's", which was renamed Twilights in the mid 1980s.

[3] The southern portion of the traditional parish of East Horndon is now in the unitary authority of Thurrock.
