Church Of St. Andrew

The Church of St. Andrew is a parish church built between 1319 and 1359, notable for its large Decorated architectural style. Constructed of flint with stone dressings and slate roofs, the church features a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a chancel, a two-storey northeast vestry, a south porch, and a west tower. The impressive west tower has five storeys, set-back buttresses, an embattled parapet, a corner turret, a patterned frieze at its base and above the west doorway, and Decorated windows with 11 openings. There are ballflower friezes below the eaves of the aisles and nave. The long chancel has a much-altered east window that contains German glass from around 1500, along with Decorated windows in the chancel and aisles, and Perpendicular clerestory windows. Inside, the church features tall arcades of six bays and a hammerbeam roof. A notable interior feature is the tomb of Thomas Lord Morley, which is an exceptionally fine 15th-century wall monument.
