History
editEmsworth is a village east of Havant, between the town and the county boundary with Sussex.[1] It was historically part of the parish of Warblington, from which it was separated ecclesiastically in 1841, and is situated at a small harbour where the River Ems enters the sea.[2]

editSt Joseph's Church was registered for worship in accordance with the Places of Worship Registration Act 1855 on 8 September 1875; its number on the register is 22444.[13] It was also registered for the solemnisation of marriages on 23 September 1875 under the terms of the Marriage Act 1836, replacing the chapel at Brockhampton.[14]
The present parish covers the whole of Havant town and extends as far as the West Sussex county boundary and the border with the city of Portsmouth, encompassing Emsworth, Bedhampton and Langstone. The church at Emsworth, St Thomas of Canterbury and St Thomas More, is still part of the parish.[15]
