Church Of St Andrew

The Church of St Andrew is a parish church dating to 1842, designed by Charles Kirk. It is constructed of stock brick with ashlar dressings and slate roofs. The east end of the chancel has a coped gable with kneelers and a single ridge cross. The nave features an embattled parapet with a single ridge cross. There are single stacks to the north chancel and south nave.

The church comprises a tower, nave, north vestry/organ chamber, and chancel. The two-stage tower is buttressed with gabled crocketed hood moulds, small diagonal buttresses with gargoyles, large crocketed finials, and an embattled parapet featuring gargoyles and a quatrefoil frieze. A crocketed spire rises from the finials, supported by flying buttresses, and features three tiers of lucarnes. The west side has a moulded arched doorway with a blind traceried double door, spandrels decorated with quatrefoils, and a single arched three-light window with a transom and cusped tracery. The north and south sides each have single rectangular lights; the south side includes an attached stair turret with bands, a parapet, and three rectangular lights. Four arched two-light bell chamber openings have cusped tracery, hood moulds, and label stops. The north nave has four arched two-light windows with cusped tracery, hood moulds, and label stops.

The vestry/organ chamber projects from the north chancel, featuring a Caernarvon arched doorway, a three-light ashlar mullion window, and a two-light window with arched and cusped lights. The east end has a three-light traceried window with a transom and cusped traceried lights, with those below the transom being blind. The south chancel has a two-light arched window with cusped tracery, a hood mould, and label stops, and to the left, a single arched and cusped light with hood mould and label stops. The south nave mirrors the north nave.

Inside, the tower has a quadruple chamfered arch with a doorway panelled with blind and glazed traceries. A gallery with blind tracery is supported by two tapering octagonal columns with open traceried brackets. A double chamfered tower arch, with an inner order supported on octagonal responds, is present, along with an open traceried screen and a small pointed chamfered archway. The chancel has a chamfered archway to the organ chamber. The chancel interior features a decorative coloured and gilt roof and a reredos with blind tracery. C19 furniture, including an elaborately carved chair, is present. Two late C18 floor slabs bear carved shields of arms, and a further C18 floor slab is also noted. Decorative C19 tiles are found on the chancel/nave floor. South chancel windows contain stained glass by Morris & Co., dating from 1907 and 1908.
