Church Of St Andrew

The Church of St Andrew, a parish church, features some Saxon masonry and a chancel from the 12th century that was partly remodeled in the 13th century, with aisles also added in the 13th century. The church was restored and had a west end added in 1839. It is constructed of squared stone with Welsh slate and Lakeland slate roofs.

The layout includes a nave with aisles, a south porch, a chancel, and a vestry. The nave has four bays with paired lancets from 1839, primarily built with older masonry. The late medieval south porch features a pointed-arched doorway, a sundial in the gable, and a pointed tunnel vault. The southeast corner of the nave, where it connects to the aisle, displays Saxon quoins. The lintels of the north windows are inscribed with "TAB 1839."

The chancel has a double-chamfered plinth, a blocked very narrow priest's door with a plain tympanum, and one small 12th-century north window. The south windows are tall paired lancets with pierced circles above, adorned with carved heads. A 12th-century sill band is interrupted by larger 13th-century windows, and there are two broad flat buttresses. The east end features stepped lancets from 1839.

The roofs are gabled, with the east end having ridged coping with roll moulding, while flat coping is used elsewhere. A tall gabled bellcote is located at the west end.

Inside, the chancel has a 12th-century rib-vaulted presbytery with ribs of two roll moulds resting on shafts with cushion capitals at the east end. The west ribs and presbytery arch rest on triple responds of similar shafts, with the arch displaying an unmoulded soffit and a pronounced zigzag towards the nave. A head of a Saxon wheel-head cross is found on the window sill. The chancel arch, dating from the 13th century, is double chamfered with broaches and features a small nailhead in the north capital. A medieval grave cover is located in the south window sill, and a Saxon tympanum is positioned above a 19th-century door into the vestry. The north arcade, dating to around 1200, has broad-chamfered pointed arches supported by round piers and capitals, with the east capital displaying primitive volutes and the east respond featuring a waterleaf capital. The early 13th-century south arcade has round piers and double-chamfered arches. The west bay is an addition from 1839. There is a 15th-century chest in the north aisle and a small round 17th-century font on a round base with a moulded foot.
