Description
The Church of St Andrew is a parish church with origins dating back to the 13th century, featuring a west tower, nave, and chancel. The church has a later south porch with re-set jambs to the doorway. It is constructed from flint with limestone dressings and has a pantile roof that extends continuously over the nave and chancel. The eaves courses are made of red brick with a dogtooth pattern on the chancel. The unbuttressed west tower has limestone quoins and a string course at the bell stage, with louvred openings that feature 'Y'-tracery. The north-west and south-west corners of the nave lack dressed quoins, suggesting an earlier construction date. The nave and chancel have two-light windows with 'Y'-tracery, while the chancel's north and south walls contain single lancets, and the east wall features three stepped lancets. The church has a 20th-century king-post roof and includes re-used 15th-century bench ends. Inside, there is a simple piscina with a trefoiled head and a stepped-cill sedilia. A brass memorial commemorates William Pescod, who died in 1505.
