Church Of St Andrew

The Church of St Andrew is a parish church that was largely rebuilt in 1863 by D. Male, while retaining much of its earlier west tower and north transept. It is constructed from flint with limestone dressings, and features a slated roof with a crested ridge over the nave and chancel, and a copper-covered roof over the south aisle. The church comprises a west tower, nave, chancel, north transept, south aisle, and south porch.

The south porch has angle buttresses on the gable, along with crocketted pinnacles and a gable cross. Above the doorway, there is a niche with a cusped ogee head. The west window is a two-light design, and there is a blocked east window opening. Most windows feature 19th century Decorated tracery with stilted hood moulds and head stops. The east gable includes a plinth with an inscription noting the rebuilding work of 1863.

Staged buttresses are present on the north and south walls. The north transept has a parapeted gable with staged angle buttresses, a four-light Perpendicular window on the north side, and a three-light Perpendicular window on the east side. The north wall of the nave has a central buttress that divides the window bays, topped by a chimney stack with an octagonal stone shaft. An angle buttress at the north-west corner displays the date 1863.

The west tower is largely medieval, featuring restored openings and staged angle buttresses on the west wall. There is a square stair turret at the south-east corner and a castellated parapet. Inside the north transept, there are wall monuments. The east wall of the tower has a very low doorway with a single hollow chamfer to the arch, and there is a sanctus bell opening above the tower arch.
