Description
The Old Church of St Andrew is a Grade II* listed building located in Upleatham Village, with remnants dating back to the 12th century. The structure includes the west end of the nave and a west tower, which is dated 1684 on its west face. It is constructed from dressed sandstone and features a clay pantile roof with stone gable copings.
The north wall of the nave has a pointed-arched, chamfered doorway with a hood mould, and a corbel table at the eaves that displays ten carved human faces and one beast in the right-hand corner. The south wall features two bays of a 13th-century arcade that are now blocked. The east wall, added in the mid-19th century, complements the original structure. Inside, the roof retains some original timbers, including one that is carved with a mystic rose design.
The two-stage embattled tower has a plinth, a string course, and louvred two-light mullioned openings in the bell chamber. The interior is plain and plastered, containing two medieval grave covers, part of a sculptured recumbent knight, a late 14th-century monument in the form of a mural niche with a worn half-length figure, and the head of an Anglo-Danish cross.
