Description
The Church of St Andrew is a parish church dating from the 14th century, which was rebuilt in 1857 by architects Maughan and Fowler. It is constructed of dressed greenstone and features slate roofs with coped gables. The church has a chamfered plinth and is buttressed, with a nave that includes a west bellcote, a south porch, a chancel, and a north vestry. The gabled bellcote has two arches for bells. The west nave window consists of three pointed arched lights, with the central light being taller, and is adorned with a hood mould and decorative label stops. The north nave features three lancet windows. The vestry, projecting from the north chancel, has a chamfered arched doorway with a hood mould and decorative label stops on the west wall, and an east wall with a single arched two-light window that also has a hood mould and decorative label stops. The east chancel window corresponds to the west nave window and includes a hood mould with human head label stops. The south chancel has three lancets, while the south nave has two taller lancets. The gabled porch on the south side has a double chamfered arched entrance with a hood mould and human head label stops, leading to an inner moulded arched doorway with a hood mould and label stops.
Inside, the church features a double chamfered chancel arch supported on quatrefoil responds, with the central shaft having a fillet. The south chancel wall contains restored 14th-century sedilia. A pair of crocketed ogee arches is supported by cluster columns with capitals decorated with carved human heads and crocketed finials. The east window has chamfered arches supported on circular columns and responds. There is a 19th-century octagonal ashlar font with decorative panels, and the remains of a 17th-century floor slab can be found in the chancel.
