Church Of St Andrew

The Church of St Andrew is a parish church that dates from the medieval period and later. It is constructed of flint with ashlar and some brick dressings, topped with slate and pantile roofs. The church features a west tower, a nave with a north aisle and porch, and a chancel. The west tower, built in the 14th and 15th centuries, has angle buttresses and a ground floor with opposed chamfered doorways of two orders on the north and south sides. Above these doorways are moulded strings with irregularly formed brick and flint relieving arches. The first floor has cusped single lights on each side, while the second floor contains loops on the south and west sides. The tower is capped with a crenellated parapet and has large three-light Perpendicular bell openings.

The south wall of the nave features a wave moulded doorway and three impressive three-light panel-traceried windows with cusped soufflets. The north aisle includes four three-light panel-traceried flat-headed windows and one two-light west window in the Decorated style. The porch has rendered brick dressings on the two-light side windows and entrance arch, along with a wave moulded north doorway. There are four two-light panel-traceried clearstorey windows and one three-light window in the eastern gable of the nave. The chancel has a blocked flat-headed window and a wave moulded priest's door on the north side, a modern three-light cusped east window, and two traceried three-light flat-headed windows on the south.

Inside, the church features a four-bay 14th-century north arcade with circular piers supporting hollow chamfered arches of three orders with a hollow roll. The hood moulds have finely carved label stops, and there is a small moulded tower arch. The restored 15th-century hammer beam roof includes renewed angels, and there is a restored screen with some original tracery. A surviving rood stair is present, and the chancel contains an angle piscina with two cusped arches and a colonnette, which is supported by a re-used 12th-century cushion capital.
